SCPI Instrument Command List

Parameter Suffix	S with engineering prefixes.
*RST value	1 ∝s
Specified limits	Agilent 81131A: 2.5 ns to 1 ms
	Agilent 81132A: 1.5 ns to 1 ms
Value coupling
	Frequency =	1

		Period
		Period
Description	Use this command to set/read the pulse period. Select the pulse period
	source using :TRIGger:SOURce. The currently selected source is
	programmed by this command. Note that the specified limits and
	available resolution depend on the selected source.
	You cannot set the pulse period if you have selected the CLK IN
	connector as the frequency source (:TRIG:SOUR EXT2).
Example	:TRIG:SOUR INT			Select internal PLL as pulse trigger
	:PULS:PER 25NS			Set pulse frequency to 25 ns

Command	:PULS:PER:AUTO
Long	[:SOURce]:PULSe:PERiod:AUTO
Form	Event
Parameter	ONCE
*RST value	Not applicable
Description	Use this command to measure the period at the CLK IN connector. If the
	CLK IN connector is the selected pulse period source, you can then read
	the measured value with	:PULS:PER?
Example	:TRIG:SOUR EXT2	Select ext CLK IN as pulse trigger
	:PULS:PER:AUTO ONCE	Measure period at CLK IN
	:PULS:PER?	Query pulse period
