Command programming notes
Wild characters
For the following command reference, it is necessary to understand the following conventions.
Many commands are expressed in a generic form using wild characters. A wild character
indicates a channel, function, or trigger line. Keep in mind that wild characters used in the
generic form are NOT to be included in the command sent to the instrument.
