1-28 Getting Started Model 2701 User’s Manual
Remote programming information
Remote programming information is integrated with front panel operation throughout this
manual. Programming commands are listed in tables, and additional information that
pertains exclusively to remote operation is provided after each table. The tables may
reference you to other sections of this manual.
NOTE Except for Section 11 through Section 15, most programming tables in this man-
ual are abridged. That is, they exclude most optional command words and query
commands. Optional command words and query commands are summarized as
follows.
Optional command words — In order to be in conformance with the IEEE-488.2 stan-
dard, Model 2701 accepts optional command words. Any command word that is enclosed
in brackets ([]) is optional and does not have to be included in the program message.
Query commands — Most command words have a query form. A query command is
identified by the question mark (?) that follows the command word. A query command
requests (queries) the programmed status of that command.
NOTE For complete details, see “Programming syntax,” page 10-21.
