Boolean Parameters Boolean parameters represent a single binary condition that is either true

or false. For a false condition, the power/energy meter will accept "OFF" or "0". For a true

condition, the meter will accept "ON" or "1". When you query a boolean setting, the instrument

will always return "0" or "1". The following command uses a boolean parameter:

CURRent:RANGe:AUTO {OFF|0|ON|1}

String Parameters String parameters can contain virtually any set of ASCII characters. A string

must begin and end with matching quotes; either with a single quote or with a double quote.

You can include the quote delimiter as part of the string by typing it twice without any charac-

ters in between. The following command uses a string parameter:

DIAG:CALString <quoted string>
