HCOPy Subsystem 
The HCOPy subsystem controls the output of display information for documentation purposes on output 
devices or files. The instrument allows two independent printer configurations which can be set 
separately with the numeric suffix <1|2>. 
Commands of the HCOPy Subsystem 
– HCOPy[:IMMediate<1|2>] 
– HCOPy[:IMMediate<1|2>]:NEXT 
– HCOPy:ABORt 
– HCOPy:CMAP<1...26>:DEFault 
– HCOPy:CMAP<1...26>:HSL 
– HCOPy:CMAP<1...26>:PDEFined 
– HCOPy:DESTination<1|2> 
– HCOPy:DEVice:COLor 
– HCOPy:DEVice:LANGuage<1|2> 
– HCOPy:ITEM:ALL 
– HCOPy:ITEM:WINDow<1|2>:TEXT 
– HCOPy:ITEM:WINDow<1|2>:TRACe:STATe 
– HCOPy:PAGE:ORIentation<1|2> 
HCOPy[:IMMediate<1|2>] 
 
This command starts a hardcopy output. The numeric suffix selects which printer configuration 
(device 1 or 2) is to be used for the hardcopy output. If there is no suffix, configuration 1 is 
automatically selected.  
This command is an event and therefore has no *RST value and no query. 
Example 
HCOP:DEV:LANG BMP 
Selects the data format. 
HCOP:DEST 'MMEM'  
Directs the hardcopy to a file. 
MMEM:NAME 'C:\R_S\instr\user\Print.bmp' 
Selects the file name. If the file Print.bmp already exists, it is replaced. 
HCOP 
Saves the hardcopy output into the file Print.bmp.
