PLZ-U Remote Control 6-5
Unit suffix
Below are the default measurement units.
• V (voltage) • A (current)
• OHM (resistance) • SIE (conductance)
• W (wattage) • HR (hour)
• MIN (minute) • S (second)
• A/US (current/time) • PCT (%)
The following optional prefixes are supported.
Only US is supported for the time of measurement unit A/US (current/time).
• M (milli) • K (kilo) • U (micro)
• The SI standard includes lowercase characters for the above unit symbols; The
IEEE standard specifies uppercase characters. SCPI commands are not case-sensi-
tive.
• Commands are accepted even if measurement units are not specified.
• To enter “μ” in the data, use “U” instead.
Terminating command strings
All commands must be terminated using a valid terminator.
There are two types of terminators: <new line> (ASCII 0x0A) or EOI (end-or-iden-
tify). Either type can be used.
In the case of RS-232C, always use <new line> because EOI is not available.
When a command string is terminated, the SCPI command path is reset to the root
level.
• CR (ASCII 0x0D) is not a terminator.
Common commands
The IEEE-488.2 and SCPI standards contain a set of common commands for reset,
self-test, and other functions. The common commands always start with an asterisk
(*) and may have one or multiple parameters.
