Section 14: SCPI command reference
:CLOSe <list>
This command is used to close the specified channel.
Usage
:ROUTe:CLOSe <list>
CLOSe? <list>
<list>
Details
The :CLOSe <list> command is used to close a channel on an optional scanner card installed in
the Model 6517B. Only one channel can be closed at a time. Thus, for this command, the chanlist
must consist of only one channel. When this command is sent, any other closed channel opens and
then the specified channel will close.
The :CLOSe? <list> query command is used to determine the state (closed or not closed) of each
channel specified by the list parameter. For this command, the chanlist can consist of multiple
channels. The following examples demonstrate the various forms for expressing the channel list.
List = (@ 2) Single channel
(@ 2,4,6) Multiple channels separated by commas (,)
(@ 1:10)
Range of channels (1 through 10);
range limits separated by a colon (:)
(@ 1:5,7) Range entry and single entry separated by a comma
After sending this query command and addressing the Model 6517B to talk, the values for the
specified channels are sent to the computer. A value of "1" indicates that the channel is closed, and a
"0" indicates that the channel is not closed.
