    Remote Programing REMOTE PROGRAMMING 11.1. Introduction Programming convention Tree concept The SCPI commands have a branching structure. A command must end with a terminator, <NL> or <;>. If commands are separated by the character <;> and are located in the same directory, there is no need to repeat the whole tree.
  • Page 87 Remote Programing Format of the parameters The parameters can be key words, digital values, character strings, or digital expressions. The interpreter is case-insensitive. Key words The key words can take two forms, like the instructions: the abbreviated form (in upper-case) The complete form (abbreviated form plus lower-case complement).
  • Page 88 Remote Programing Special values MAXimum, MINimum are used to obtain the extreme values of the parameter. UP, DOWN are used to go to the value following or preceding the current state of the parameter. Character strings These are series of letters and/or digits enclosed in quotation marks " ".
