14-2 SCPI Reference Tables Model 6487 Reference Manual
General notes
• Brackets ([ ]) are used to denote optional character sets. These optional characters
do not have to be included in the program message. Do not use brackets in the pro-
gram message.
• Angle brackets (< >) are used to indicate parameter type. Do not use angle brackets
in the program message.
• The Boolean parameter (<b>) is used to enable or disable an instrument operation.
1 or ON enables the operation and 0 or OFF disables the operation.
• Uppercase characters indicated the short-form version for each command word.
• Default parameter — Listed parameters are both the *RST and SYSTem:PRESet
defaults, unless noted otherwise. Parameter notes are located at the end of each
table.
• Ref — Refers you to the section (Sec) that provides operation information for that
command or command subsystem.
• SCPI — A checkmark (√) indicates that the command and its parameters are SCPI
confirmed. An unmarked command indicates that it is a SCPI command, but does
not conform to the SCPI standard set of commands. It is not a recognized com-
mand by the SCPI consortium. SCPI confirmed commands that use one or more
non-SCPI parameters are explained by notes.
