Guidelines for Operation
The following topics discuss rules and guidelines for controlling the Test Set
through GPIB.
Command Names
All command names of more than four characters have an alternate abbreviated
form using only upper case letters and, in some cases, a single numeral. The
commands are not case sensitive. Upper and lower case characters can be used for
all commands.
For example, to set the destination of AF Generator 1 to Audio Out, any of the
following command strings are valid:
AFGENERATOR1:DESTINATION ’AUDIO OUT’
or
afgenerator1:destination ’audio out’
or
afg1:dest ’audio out’
or
AFG1:DEST ’AUDIO OUT’
or
Afg1:Dest ’Audio oUT’
