Parameters that are only returned as the result of a query are indicated as Return
values.
●
Conformity
Commands that are taken from the SCPI standard are indicated as SCPI con-
firmed. All commands used by the R&S RTE follow the SCPI syntax rules.
●
Asynchronous commands
A command which does not automatically finish executing before the next com-
mand starts executing (overlapping command) is indicated as an Asynchronous
command.
●
Reset values (*RST)
Default parameter values that are used directly after resetting the instrument (*RST
command) are indicated as *RST values, if available.
●
Default unit
The default unit is used for numeric values if no other unit is provided with the
parameter.
18.2 Finding the appropriate command
In the following chapters, the commands are sorted according to the menu and dialog
structure of the instrument.
A list of all commands in alphabetical order ist given in the "List of Commands" at the
end of this documentation.
To find the appropriate command for a setting easily, you can use the context help:
1. Enable the "Tooltip" icon on the toolbar.
2. Tap the parameter for which you need information.
The tooltip opens.
3. Tap the "Show Help" button in the lower right corner of the tooltip.
The "Help" window opens and displays the comprehensive description and the cor-
responding remote command.
4. Tap the remote command link to open the command description.
18.3 Programming examples
Some of the commands in the following chapter are asynchronous. An overlapping or
asynchronous command does not automatically finish executing before the next com-
mand starts executing. If overlapping commands must be executed in a defined order,
e.g. to avoid wrong measurement results, they must be serviced sequentially.
