SCPI Command Reference [:ROUTe]:SYMBol:CHANnel

[:ROUTe]:SYMBol:CHANnel

In the GPIB local mode, the B2200 uses 01 to 48 (two digits numbers) to specify the output ports (channels) 1 to 48 respectively. This command specifies a symbol string and lets the B2200 use the specified string instead of the two digits number. The query returns the symbol string.

Maximum value of the two digits number depends on the B2200 configuration. It is 12 for the normal configuration mode or the auto configuration mode with one matrix card, 24 for the auto configuration mode with two matrix cards, 36 for the auto configuration mode with three matrix cards, or 48 for the auto configuration mode with four matrix cards.

Reboot, *RST, and :SYSTem:CPON clear the symbol strings. After that, the initial symbol string (two digits numbers 01 to 48) will be set.
