example, in the above command, {VPP|VRMS|DBM} means you can specify "VPP", "VRMS"
or "DBM". The bars are not sent with the command string.
The angle brackets (< >) in the second example indicate that you must specify a value for the
parameter inside the parentheses. For example, in the above syntax statement, the parameter in
angle brackets is <frequency>. Angle brackets are not sent with the command string. You must
specify a value for the parameter (for example "FREQ: CENT 1000") unless you choose
another option (such as "FREQ: CENT MIN") that appears in the syntax.
Some syntax elements (such as nodes and parameters) are enclosed in square brackets ([ ]).
This means that the element is optional and can be omitted. Angle brackets are not sent with
the command string. If no value is specified for the optional parameter, the instrument will
choose the default value. In the above example, "SOURce[1|2]" means that you can refer to
source channel 1 by "SOURce" or "SOURce1", or "SOUR1" or "SOUR". Also, since the entire
SOURce node is optional (in square brackets), you can also refer to channel 1 by completely
omitting the SOURce node. This is because channel 1 is the default channel for the SOURce
language node. On the other hand, to refer to channel 2, you must use "SOURce2" or "SOUR2"
in the program line.
^END: The EOI (end) signal of the IEEE-488 bus.
The signs in this manual are as follows:
NR1: integer, e.g.:123
NR2: fix-point number, e.g.: 12.3
NR3: floating-point number, e.g.: 12.3E+5
NL: carriage key, integer: 10
