Classification:

Miscellaneous system parameter

Command Syntax:

None

Query Syntax:

VERH?

Query Response:

<version>

Description:

The VERH? query returns a five digit hardware version number.

 

The number indicates when a major modification to the hardware

 

was last implemented. The significance of each digit is interpreted

 

as follows:

 

31995

Classification:

Format parameter setting

Command Syntax:

VRES <lines>

Limits:

<lines>

min = 1 (when SCAN = 1) or 2 (when SCAN = 2)

max = the lesser of

 

1024 (for the 801GP, GC, GX or 801GC-ISA) or

 

2048 (for the 801GF or 801GF-ISA) or

 

VTOT-1 (when SCAN = 1) or

 

VTOT-3 (when SCAN = 2)

 

Must be an even number when SCAN = 2.

Query Syntax:

Description:

The VRES command establishes the number of active lines per

 

frame. The VRES? query returns the current setting of VRES.

Other Required Cmds:
