 INF INFinity stands for + 
∞. For queries the numerical value 9,9E37 is output. 
With MSCAN, FSCAN or DSCAN, the INF value 9,9E37 is entered in the result 
buffers 
MTRACE and ITRACE to mark the end of range. 
 
 NINF Negative INFinity (NINF) stands for - ∞. For queries the numerical value 
-9,9E37 is output. In a measured value query, this value will be output if owing 
to the device setting the measurement cannot be carried out. 
 
  NAN    Not A Number (NAN) stands for the value 9,91E37. NAN is only sent as a 
device response. This value is not defined. Possible causes are the division of 
zero by zero, the subtraction of infinity from infinity and the display of missing 
values (eg with TRACe[:DATA]?). 
 
Boolean parameters  Boolean parameters represent two states. The ON state (logically true) is 
represented by ON or a numerical value unequal to 0. The OFF state (logically 
untrue) is represented by OFF or the numerical value 0. 0 or 1 is provided in a 
query. 
 
 Example: Setting command: 
  OUTPut:FILTer:STATe ON 
 Query: OUTput:FILTER:STATe? 
  Response: 1 
 
Text  Text parameters (character data) observe the syntactic rules for keywords, i.e. 
they can be entered using the short or long form. Like any parameter, they have 
to be separated from the header by a "white space". In the case of a query, the 
short form of the text is provided. 
 Example:  Setting command: SENSe:FREQuency:MODE FIXed 
  Query: SENSe:FREQuency:MODE?
  Response FIX 
 
Strings  Strings must always be entered in quotation marks (’ or "). 
 
 Example: SYSTem:SECurity: OPTion "123ABC"    
 or 
 
SYSTem:LANGuage ’English’
