Agilent InfiniiVision 5000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Reference 3
In This Book
This programmer's reference gives detailed information on all the
commands available for controlling these oscilloscope models:
The command descriptions in this reference show upper and lowercase
characters. For example, :AUToscale indicates that the entire command
name is :AUTOSCALE. The short form, :AUT, is also accepted by the
oscilloscope.
Command arguments and syntax are described for each command. Some
command descriptions have example code.

Example
Programs
The example programs are designed to work with multiple InfiniiVision
5000 Series oscilloscopes. Therefore, the commands may not match the
example code exactly, but the example code should run because of the
designed- in backward compatibility with earlier commands.
