Command
DESCRIPTION
COMMAND SYNTAX
EXAMPLE (GPIB)
The BUZZER command controls the built-in piezo-electric buzz-
er. This may be useful to attract the attention of a local operator in
an interactive working application. The buzzer may either be acti-
vated for short beeps (about 400 msec long in BEEP mode)
continuously for a certain time interval selected by the user by
turning the buzzer ON or OFF. A beep request which immediately
follows another beep request will be held off for approximately
200 msec.
Note: This command is always accepted (local and remote).
BUZZer := {BEEP, ON, OFF}
Sending the following code will cause the oscilloscope to sound two
short tones.
CMD$ = "BUZZ BEEP; BUZZ BEEP";
CALL IBWRT(SCOPE%, CMD$)
