Command Reference Information
SCPI Command Listings
The Table of Contents lists the PSG SCPI commands without the parameters. The SCPI
command subsystem name will generally have the first part of the command in parenthesis
that is repeated in all commands within the subsystem. The title(s) beneath the subsystem
name is the remaining command syntax. The following example demonstrates this listing:
Communication Subsystem (:SYSTem:COMMunicate)
:GPIB:ADDRess
:LAN:HOSTname
The following examples show the complete commands from the above Table of Contents
listing:
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB:ADDRess
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:HOSTname
Softkey and Hardkey Cross Reference
The index is set up so applicable softkeys and hardkeys can be cross-referenced to the
appropriate SCPI command. There are three headings in the index where the softkey or
hardkey names can be found:
• individual softkey or hardkey name
• softkey or hardkey heading
• subsystem name
Supported Signal Generator Series
Within each command section there is a Supported heading. When “All” is shown next to this
heading, this implies that all PSG series signal generators are supported by the SCPI
command. Conversely, when individual PSG series such as PSG-A are shown next to the
heading, only the listed series are supported by the command.
