Page 36: Command Reference
The common commands are defined in IEEE std. 488.2-1987, and these commands are common for all devices. The SCPI commands are used to control all of the AT516's functions. The SCPI commands are tree structured three levels deep. The highest level commands are called the subsystem commands in this manual. - Page 37 Command Reference ROOT COMmand1 COMmand2 COMmand3 COMmand4 COMmand5 Example: ROOT:COMmand3:COMmand5 ppp ROOT Subsystem Command COMmand3 Level 2 COMmand5 Level 3 Parameter The basic rules of the command tree are as follows. Letter case (upper and lower) is ignored. For example, ROOT:COMMAND3 = root:command3...
