ABORT

Description The ABORT command stops the execution of a user-de￿ned function. If ABORT is encountered in a function that has been executed by pressing a

key, the function is interrupted and front-panel control is returned. If the function is activated by a computer program, ABORT resumes program operation at the ￿rst analyzer command following the function. When, in addition, the function is nested within one or more user-de￿ned functions, ABORT resumes program operation at the ￿rst analyzer command following all of the user-de￿ned functions.

The RETURN command also interrupts operation of a user-de￿ned function, but instead returns operation to the point where the user-de￿ned function was called.
