How to Use the Command Line Editor

You can specify the instrument to which you want to send a command or
command sequence by selecting the Handle.
All commands available for the HP 81200 system can be entered. For
details see the HP 81200 Commands Reference. Note that the first colon is
automatically provided and must not be entered.
Once you have entered a command in the command entry area, click the
Execute button. This downloads the command to the firmware where it is
executed.
Commands which have been successfully executed are moved into the
display area.

Copy and Paste in the Command Line Editor
Selected text can be cut, copied or pasted from and to the command entry
area. The Command Line Editor provides a context menu that supports
these operations, and the editor reacts on common keyboard shortcuts
(Ctrl + c, Ctrl + x, Ctrl + v). It uses the Windows Clipboard.
You can copy and paste parts of a command or a whole command line.
Commands can thus be taken from the display area and entered in the
command entry area.
The two arrow-buttons at the right-hand side of the command entry line
can be used for scrolling through previous successful commands.
