Syntax Elements

 

 

 

 

Syntax Component

 

Definition/Range

 

 

 

 

 

Character string

 

A list of characters.

 

 

 

 

 

Data byte

 

8-bit byte containing numeric or character data.

 

 

 

 

 

Data byte & EOI

 

8-bit byte containing numeric or character data followed by end-or-identify (EOI)

 

 

 

condition, where the EOI control line on GPIB is asserted to indicate the end of the

 

 

 

transmission. END signifies the EOI condition.

 

 

 

 

 

Delimiter

 

\ @ ˆ $ % ; ! Matching characters that mark the beginning and end of a character

 

 

 

string, or a list of analyzer commands. Choose delimiting characters that are not used

 

 

 

within the string they delimit.

 

 

 

 

 

Digit

 

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

 

 

 

 

 

lsb length

 

Represents the least significant byte of a two-byte word that describes the number of

 

 

 

bytes returned or transmitted. See msb length.

 

 

 

 

 

msb length

 

Represents the most significant byte of a two-byte word that describes the number of

 

 

 

bytes returned or transmitted. See lsb length.

 

 

 

 

 

Number

 

Expressed as integer, decimal, or in exponential (E) form.

 

 

 

Real Number Range: ± 1.797693134862315 ⋅ 10308, including 0.

 

 

 

Up to 15 significant figures allowed.

 

 

 

Numbers may be as small as ± 2.225073858507202 ⋅ 10−308

 

 

 

Integer Number Range: −32,768 through +32,767

 

 

 

 

 

Output termination

 

Line feed (LF) and end-or-identify (EOI) condition. ASCII code 10 (line feed) is sent

 

 

 

via GPIB and the end-or-identify control line on GPIB sets to indicate the end of the

 

 

 

transmission.

 

 

 

 

 

Units

 

Represent standard scientific units.

 

 

 

Frequency Units: GZ, GHZ, MZ, MHZ, KZ, KHZ, HZ

 

 

 

Amplitude Units: DB, DBMV, DM, DBM, DBUV, V, MV, UV, W, MW, UW

 

 

 

Time Units: SC, S, MS, US
