Chapter 9 Command Reference

This chapter describes the commands specific for STB6684/STB6684A.
The signs in this manual are as follows:
NR1: integer, e.g.:123
NR2: fix-point number, e.g.: 12.3
NR3: floating-point number, e.g.: 12.3E+5

There are two types of intrument commands: GPIB common commands and SCPI (Standard
Commands for Programmable Instruments). GPIB common commands complying
with IEEE488.2-1987 standard are applicable to all instruments, but STB6684/STB6684A does
not support all common commands. SCPI commands are tree structured.
