General notes


Brackets ([ ]) are used to denote optional character sets. These optional characters do not have
to be included in the program message. Do not use brackets in the program message.

Angle brackets (< >) are used to indicate parameter type. Do not use angle brackets in the
program message.

The Boolean parameter (<b>) is used to enable or disable an instrument operation. 1 or ON
enables the operation and 0 or OFF disables the operation.

Upper case characters indicate the short-form version for each command word.

Default Parameter: Listed parameters are both the *RST and :SYSTem:PRESet defaults, unless
noted otherwise. Parameter notes are located at the end of each table.

SCPI: A check mark () indicates that the command and its parameters are
SCPI-confirmed. An unmarked command indicates that it is non-SCPI. SCPI-confirmed
commands that use one or more non-SCPI parameters are explained by notes.
