NOTE:
Sending the Test Set any of the unsupported SCPI PROGram Subsystem commands can
result in unexpected and/or erroneous operation of IBASIC. This may require the Test Set's
RAM to be initialized from the SERVICE screen to regain proper IBASIC operation.
PROGram Subsystem Commands
Command Notation
The following notation is used in the command descriptions:
Command Descriptions
NOTE:
When a PROGram Subsystem command is sent to the Test Set through GPIB from an
external controller the Test Set is put into REMOTE mode. The Test Set must be put in
LOCAL mode to use the front-panel keys or to use the serial ports to input data into the
IBASIC Command line.
[:SELected]

Letter case (uppercase or lowercase) is used to differentiate between the short form (the
uppercase characters) and long form (the whole keyword) of the command.
The lower case letters in the keyword are optional; they can be deleted and the com-
mand will still be understood by the Test Set.
[] = Optional keyword; this is the default state, the Test Set will process the command
to have the same effect whether the optional keyword is included by the programmer or
not.
<> = Specific SCPI-defined parameter types. Refer to the SCPI Standard for definitions
of the SCPI-defined parameter types.
{} = One or more parameters that must be included one or more times.
| = Separator for choices for a parameter. Can be read the same as "or."
