TG8000 syntax
This section contains information on the Standard Commands for Progr ammable
Instruments (SCPI) and IEEE 488.2 Common Commands you can use to program
your TG8000.
The information is organized in the following subsections:
Programming Model - This subsection provides information on programming
prerequisi
tes
SCPI Commands and Queries - This subsec tion describes the SCPI command
organizat
ion and syntax
IEEE 488.2 Common Commands - This subsection lists the commands and
argument
structures that are common to all SCPI commands
Constructed Mnemonics - This subsection describes the usage of constructed
mnemoni
cs by the TG8000.
Block Arguments - This subsection describes the usage of block arguments
by the T
G8000.
Special Characters - This subsection lists the special character sets that are
used b
y the remote control interface.
Programming model
Spec
ific conditions must exist before programming commands will affect the test
signal generated by a module.
Selecting the module
Select the module to be addressed before executing any c ommands . Many of
the
commands used by the TG8000 are shared by several modules and will be
accepted without a reported error.
Command arguments
Many commands accept either string or numeric arguments. For example: a
b
oolean argument can either be "1" or "ON".
Signal parameter commands that have a :STEP node can accept either a numeric
value or a string argument that refers to the :STEP increment.
Select signal parameter commands accept either a numeric value or one of the
following strings:
UP. Use this argument to increase the parameter value one increment as defined
by the :STEP value.
DOWN. Use this argument to decrease the parameter v alue one increment as
defined by the :STEP value.
