6 Remote Control - Commands
6.1 Notation
In the following sections, all commands implemented in the device are listed according
to the command system and then described in detail. For the most part, the notation used
complies with SCPI specifications. The commands are separated in high-level and low-
level commands, where the high-level commands combine several low-level commands
in one command.
Numeric suffixes <n>
If a command can be applied to multiple instances of an object, e.g. specific sensors, the
required instances can be specified by a suffix added to the command. Numeric suffixes
are indicated by angular brackets (<1...4>, <n>, <i>) and are replaced by a single value
in the command. Entries without a suffix are interpreted as having the suffix 1.
Optional keywords [ ]
Some command systems permit certain keywords to be inserted into the header or omit-
ted. These keywords are marked by square brackets in the description. The instrument
must recognize the long command to comply with the SCPI standard. Some commands
are considerably shortened by these optional mnemonics.
Therefore, not only is there a short and a long form for the commands (distinguished here
by lowercase and uppercase letters) but also a short form which is created by omitting
optional keywords.
Example:
Command [SENSe<[1]..4>]:CORRection:GAIN2[:INPut][:MAGNitude] 1
can be written as:
SENSe1:CORRection:GAIN2:INPut:MAGNitude 1
SENSe1:CORRection:GAIN2:INPut 1
SENSe1:CORRection:GAIN2 1
SENSe:CORRection:GAIN2 1
CORRection:GAIN2 1
Parameters
Parameters must be separated from the header by a "white space". If several parameters
are specified in a command, they are separated by a comma (,). For a description of the
parameter types, refer to chapter 5.7.5, "Parameters", on page 177.
