6.3.2 Detailed command descriptions
The following describes various command functions and syntax.
a) Meanings of symbols
Angle brackets (
< >
):
Parameter symbols are enclosed in angle brackets. For example, <NR1>
indicates the digital data format (NR1 type).
A vertical bar ( | )
A parameter is used to alternative parameters. For example, “FIX|STEP”
indicates that either “FIX” or “STEP” can be used as a parameter.
Square brackets (
[ ]
)
An option header is enclosed by square brackets. For example,
“[SOURce:]LIST” indicates that “SOURce:” can be omitted.
Bold (boldface)
Boldface characters are used to emphasize a syntax string when a
command is defined, such as
TRIGger:SOURCe<NRf>
.
A triangular symbol is used to explicitly indicate that a space exists.
b) Remark
Commands and queries are both included as APS-1102A commands, but for simplicity both are
referred to as commands.
Any command that includes a question mark (?) with a keyword is a query.
Headers are not applied to command reply messages.
