This section describes the Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments (SCPI) commands for the Form C Switch. Commands are listed

or TRIGger:SOURce HOLD.
ABORt
•
ABORt Actions: ABORt invalidates the current channel list and sets
ARM:COUNt 1 (one scanning cycle per INITiate command), sets
INITiate:CONTinuous OFF (no continuous scanning cycles), and
sets TRIGger:SOURce IMMediate (immediate internal triggering).
•
Stopping Scan Enabled From Interface: When a scan is enabled
from an interface, an interface CLEAR command or the HP E130lA
front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys can be used to stop the
scan. When the scan is enabled from the interface and TRIG:SOUR
BUS or HOLD is set, use ABORt or the HP E130lA front panel
"Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys to stop the scan.
•
Stopping Scan Enabled From Front Panel: When a scan is
enabled from the HP E1301A front panel, you can use *RST entered
via the interface or the front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys
to stop the scan.
