SCPI command subsystems
SCPI commands are categorized into subsystems. The subsystems are presented in alphabetical
order as follows:
5.11 :DISPlay subsystem —
Explains the commands used to control user defined text
messages.
5.12 :OUTPut subsystem —
Explains the commands used to program the polarity (active-
high or active-low) of the digital output port bits.
5.13 :ROUTe subsystem —
Covers commands used to open and close channels, define a
scan list, specify restricted (forbidden) channels, and enable/disable Single Channel
and Card Pair. Also covered are slot configuration commands used to program the re-
lay settling time, pole-mode and card type of each slot. Finally, memory commands
used to store (save) and recall channel patterns are explained here.
5.14 Sense subsystems —
Explains the command used to read the digital input port of the
Model 7001 (and digital cards).
5.15 :SOURce subsystem —
Covers the commands used to set the state (0 or 1) of the dig-
ital output port bits.
5.16 :STATus subsystem —
Covers the commands used to control the status registers of
the Model 7001.
5.17 :SYSTem subsystem —
Covers miscellaneous commands used to read the software
revision level of the Model 7001, read the error queue, and set the power-on setup
configuration.
5.18 Trigger subsystem —
Covers commands used to scan.
