Comments Defining Scan List: When executing [ROUTe:]SCAN, the channel list is checked for valid card and channel numbers. An error is generated for an invalid channel list.

Scanning Channels: You can scan single channels (@ccnn); multiple channels (@ccnn,ccnn,...); sequential channels (@ccnn:ccnn); groups of sequential channels (@ccnn:ccnn,ccnn:ccnn); or any combination.

Scanning Operation: When a valid channel list is defined, INITiate[:IMMediate] begins the scan and closes the first channel in the channel list. Successive triggers from the source specified by TRIGger:SOURce advances the scan through the channel list.

Stopping Scan: See the ABORt command.

Related Commands: TRIGger, TRIGger:SOURce

*RST Condition: All channels open.
