Reference tables
Table 18-1 through Table 18-11 summarize the commands for each SCPI subsystem.
The following list includes the SCPI subsystem, table number where each command is
summarized, and the page number where detailed reference information begins.
General notes:
• Brackets ([ ]) are used to denote optional character sets. These optional char-
acters do not have to be included in the program message. Do not use brackets
in the program message.
• Angle brackets (< >) are used to indicate parameter type. Do not use angle
brackets in the program message.
• The Boolean parameter (<b>) is used to enable or disable an instrument opera-
tion. 1 or ON enables the operation, and 0 or OFF disables the operation.
• Upper case characters indicate the short-form version for each command word.
• Default Parameter — Listed parameters are both the *RST and :SYSTem:PRE-
Set defaults, unless noted otherwise. Notes are located at the end of each
table.
• SCPI — A checkmark (✓) indicates that the command and its parameters are
SCPI confirmed. An unmarked command indicates that it is a SCPI command,
but does not conform to the SCPI standard set of commands. It is not a recog
-
nized command by the SCPI consortium. SCPI confirmed commands that use
one or more non-SCPI parameters are explained by notes.
• Source Memory — A checkmark (✓) indicates that the parameters associated
with the specified command are saved in any one of 100 memory locations by
the :SOURce[1]:MEMory:SAVE command.
