    About Commands About Commands The information that is transferred between the controller (PC) and the device (PCR- WE/WE2 series) is referred to as messages. This product uses the SCPI language for these messages. The messages that the PC sends to the product are commands. The messages that the product sends to the PC are responses.

  • Page 317 Tutorial The TRANsient, ACQuire, SIMulation, and PROGram trigger subsystems have three states (IDLE state, INITiated state, WTG state). • IDLE state When the product is turned on, all trigger subsystems are in the IDLE state. In this state, the trigger subsystem ignores all triggers. If you send any of the following commands, the trigger subsystem is switched to the IDLE state, regardless of its current state.

    Tutorial Status Monitoring The product has two mandatory SCPI standard registers, STATus:OPERation and STATus:QUEStionable, in addition to the IEEE488.2 standard registers. ■ Register basics All SCPI registers have a standard architecture that uses events/filters. CONDition, EVENt, and ENABle and optionally PTRansition and NTRansition can be used. CONDition and EVENt are read-only registers working as status indicators.
