    GPP Series User Manual Command Syntax The commands that are used with the GPP series meet IEEE488.2 and SCPI standards. SCPI Commands Overview SCPI Command Format SCPI is an ASCII based command language designed for test and measurement instruments. SCPI commands uses a hierarchical structure (tree system), and is divided into different subsystems.
  • Page 107 REMOTE CONTROL Symbol Description SCPI commands have the following conventional symbols. These symbols are not commands but are used to describe the command parameters. 1. Curly Brackets { } Curly Bracket enclose command string parameters, for example: {OFF|ON} 2. Vertical Bars | Vertical bars are used to separate one or more optional parameters.
  • Page 108 GPP Series User Manual Parameter Types The commands have a number of different parameter categories. How the parameters are set depend on the parameter categories. 1. Boolean Commands parameter that have to states “OFF” and “ON”, for example, DISPlay:FOCUs {ON|OFF}. “ON” will turn on the focus display function, while “OFF”...
  • Page 109 REMOTE CONTROL 5. ASCII Strings ASCII string parameters must use a combination of ASCII characters in a string. For example: For the command: MODE <name>, <name> must be an ASCII string. Command Abbreviations The syntax for SCPI commands contains a combination of upper and lower case letters.

    GPP Series User Manual Event Registers The operation, measurement and questionable status register groups all have event registers. The event registers are read only registers that reflect the status of the unit. Individual bits in the event registers are latched (set) when a corresponding event occurs and will remain latched even if the corresponding event changes, as long as the event bit is still set.

  • Page 186: Standard Event Register

    GPP Series User Manual In general it is best to use the Operation Complete Bit (bit 0) in the standard event register to check to see if an operation/command has completed. After executing the *OPC command, the OPC bit will be set to 1. If a command or query is placed in the output buffer immediately before the *OPC command is sent, the Operation Complete Bit can be used to determine when the information can be used.
