SCPI Instrument Command List

SCPI Instrument Command List

The following reference sections list the instrument commands in alphabetical order. In addition to a command description, the attributes of each command are described under the following headings. Not all of these attributes are applicable to all commands. The commands are conform to the IEEE 488.2 SCPI standard.

Command	Shows the short form of the command.
Long	Shows the long form of the command.
Form	Most commands can be used in different forms:
	Set	The command can be used to program the instrument
	Query	The command can be used to interrogate the instrument. Add a ? to
		the command if necessary.
	Event	The command performs a one-off action.
Parameter	The type of parameter, if any, accepted by the command. The minimum
	and maximum value of numeric parameters can be accessed by the
	option MINimum or MAXimum.
Parameter Suffix	The suffixes that may follow the parameter.
Functional	Any other commands that are implicitly executed by the command.
Coupling
Value Coupling	Any other parameter that is also changed by the command.
Range Coupling	Any other parameters whose valid ranges may be changed by the
	command.
*RST value	The value/state following a *RST command.
Specified Limits	The specified limits of a parameter.
Absolute Limits	Some parameters can be programmed beyond their specified limits.
Example	Example programming statements.
