Command Entry
Follow these general rules when entering commands:
H Enter commands in upper or lower case.
H You can precede any command with white space characters.
White space characters include any combination of the ASCII
control characters 00 through 09 and 0B through 20 hexadecimal
(0 through 9 and 11 through 32 decimal).
H The oscilloscope ignores com mands that consists of just a
combination of white space characters and line feeds.
Abbreviating Comm ands
You can abbreviate many oscilloscope commands. These abbrevia-
tions are shown in capital letters in the command listing in the
Command Groups sectiononpage2--15andCommand Descriptions
section on page 2 --45. For example, the command ACQuire:NUMAvg
can be entered simply as ACQ:NUMA or acq:numa.
If you use the HEADer c ommand to have command headers included
as part of query responses, you can a lso control whether the returne d
headers are abbreviated or are full-length using the VERBose
command.
Concatenating Commands
You can concatenate any combination of set commands and queries
using a semicolon (;). The oscilloscope executes concatenated
commands in the order received. When concatenating commands
and querie s you mu st follow these rules:
H Completely different headers must be separated by both a
semicolon and by the beginning colon on all commands but the
first. For example, the commands TRIGger:MODe NORMal and
ACQuire:NUMAVg 16 can be concatenated into a single
command:
TRIGger:MODe NORMal;:ACQuire:NUMAVg 16
