a suffix is omitted, the default suffix is assumed.

Getting Started with GPIB

This secion is intended as a quick guide to the GPIB syntax and commands used
by the OMM-6810B. The 6810's unique (device-dependent) commands are
described in Chapter 4.

Overview of the OMM-6810B Syntax

Generally, a command or query is entered (spelled) as shown in Table 4.1. The
command/query must contain all of the letters which are shown in upper case in
Figure 4.2 and Table 4.1. However, the command parser is not case sensitive so
either upper or lower case may be used in any combination. The lower case
letters shown with the commands in Section 4.4 are optional letters, and may be
used for software clarity. The commands below are equal. Only the first three
letters "BRI" are required, while the other letters, are optional.
