Chapter 3 Programming Your Universal Counter for Remote Operation
Elements of SCPI Commands
Programming Guide
3-15
For example, sending :INP:COUP AC;IMP 50 is equivalent to sending:
:INP:COUP AC
:INP:IMP 50
or
:INP:COUP AC;:INP:IMP 50
The “:” must be present to distinguish another root level command. For example:
:INP:COUP AC;:INIT:CONT OFF
is equivalent to sending:
:INP:COUP AC
:INIT:CONT OFF
If the “:”(which is following the “;” and is in front of INIT) is omitted, the Counter
assumes that the second command is “:INP:INIT:CONT OFF” and generates a
syntax error.
