instruments
A.3.1 Keysight 81110A/81104A/81101A instrument family
The implemented SCPI command set is based on Keysight’s
81110A/81104A/81101A Pulse/Data Generator product family. Most of the
SCPI commands available for that instrument family are also available in the
Keysight 81150A / 81160A instrument. The following table lists the SCPI
commands which are not available in 81150A / 81160A as compared to the
above-mentioned instruments.
