10-12 Remote Operations Model 2750 Multimeter/Switch System User’s Manual
These brackets indicate that IMMediate is implied (optional) and does not have to be used.
Thus, the above command can be sent in one of two ways:
INITiate
or
INITiate:IMMediate
Notice that the optional command is used without the brackets. When using optional com-
mand words in your program, do not include the brackets.
Parameter types — The following are some of the more common parameter types:
<b> Boolean — Used to enable or disable an instrument operation. 0 or OFF
disables the operation, and 1 or ON enables the operation. Example:
SYSTem:LSYNc ON Enable line synchronization
<name> Name parameter — Select a parameter name from a listed group. Exam-
ple:
<name> = NEVer
= NEXt
= ALWays
TRACe:FEED:CONTrol NEXt
<NRf> Numeric representation format — This parameter is a number that can be
expressed as an integer (e.g., 8), a real number (e.g., 23.6), or an exponent
(2.3E6). Example:
SYSTem:KEY 11 Press EXIT key from over the bus
<n> Numeric value — A numeric value parameter can consist of an NRf num-
ber or one of the following name parameters: DEFault, MINimum, or
MAXimum. When the DEFault parameter is used, the instrument is pro-
grammed to the *RST default value. When the MINimum parameter is
used, the instrument is programmed to the lowest allowable value. When
the MAXimum parameter is used, the instrument is programmed to the
largest allowable value. Examples:
ARM:TIMer 0.1 Sets timer to 100 msec.
ARM:TIMer DEFault Sets timer to 0.1 sec.
ARM:TIMer MINimum Sets timer to 1 msec.
ARM:TIMer MAXimum Sets timer to 99999.99 sec.
<clist> Channel list — Specify one or more channels. Example:
ROUTe:SCAN (@101:110) Scan list; slot 1, channels 1- 10
<list> List — Specify one or more numbers for a list. Example:
STATus:QUEue:ENABle (-110:-222) Enable errors -110 through -222
