Page 196: Scpi Command Structure
® Additional basics on remote control R&S Messages and command structure are device-specific, however, their syntax follows SCPI rules as permitted by the standard. Instrument responses Instrument responses (response messages and service requests) are messages which the instrument sends to the controller after a query. They can contain measurement results, instrument settings and information on the instrument status.
Page 197 ® Additional basics on remote control R&S Messages and command structure Syntax for device-specific commands For demonstration purposes only, assume the existence of the following commands for this section: ● MEASure:CURRent[:DC]? ● MEASure:VOLTage[:DC]? ● FUSE[:STATe] {0 | 1} ● FUSE[:STATe]?

Page 199 ® Additional basics on remote control R&S Messages and command structure SCPI parameters Many commands are supplemented by a parameter or a list of parameters. The parameters must be separated from the header by a whitespace (ASCII code 0 to 9, 11 to 32 decimal, e.g.
Page 200 ® Additional basics on remote control R&S Messages and command structure Example: OUTP:STAT ON OUTP:STAT?

Like any parameter, they have to be separated from the header by a white space.

® Additional basics on remote control R&S Command sequence and synchronization An asterisk marks a common command. " Quotation marks introduce a string and terminate it. A whitespace (ASCII-Code 0 to 9, 11 to 32 decimal, e.g. blank) separates the header from the parameters.
Page 202: Preventing Overlapping Execution
The controller can be forced to wait for the corre- sponding action. The R&S NGU series does not support parallel processing of remote commands. If OPC? returns a "1", the device is able to process new commands.
Page 203 ® Additional basics on remote control R&S Status reporting system Depending on the value of the read register, you can draw conclusions on the current status of the device. For example, when the unit operates in constant voltage, the result of the returned ISUM register is a decimal "2" which corresponds the binary value of "0000000000000010".
Page 204 ® Additional basics on remote control R&S Status reporting system The CONDition register delivers a "1" (first bit set) in constant current mode (CC) and a "2" (second bit set) in constant voltage mode (CV). If the correct channel is selected and the red LED of the channel button lights up (CC mode), the query of the CONDition register must deliver a "1".
Page 205 ® Additional basics on remote control R&S Status reporting system STATus:OPERation Register In the CONDition part, this register contains information on which actions the instru- ment is being executing or, in the EVENt part, information on which actions the instru- ment has executed since the last reading.
