SCPI Instrument Command List

Command

:MMEM:COPY

 

Long

:MMEMory:COPY

 

Form

Event

 

Parameter

"filename"[,"A:"],"copyname"[,"A:"]

*RST

Not applicable

 

Description

Use this command to copy an existing file filename in the current

 

directory to a new file copyname. If copyname is the name of a sub-

 

directory in the current directory, a copy of the file filename is made in

 

the sub-directory. Use ".." as copyname to copy a file into the parent

 

directory of the current directory.

 

Examples

To copy files on the memory card:

 

 

:MMEM:COPY "test1","test2"

Copy test1 to test2

 

:MMEM:COPY "test1",".."

Copy test1 into parent directory

Command

:MMEM:DEL

 

Long

:MMEMory:DELete

 

Form

Event

 

Parameter

"filename"

 

*RST

Not applicable

 

Description

Use this command to delete file filename from the currently selected

 

directory.

 

Command

:MMEM:INIT

 

Long

:MMEMory:INITialize

 

Form

Event

 

Parameter

["A:"[,"DOS"]]

 

*RST

Not applicable

 

Description

Use this command to initialize a memory card to DOS format.

 

Initializing a memory card destroys any existing data on the card.
