Programming
—DM 5010
COMMANDS
The
instrument is controlled by the
front panel or
via
commands
received from the controller.
These commands
are
of three
types:
Setting commands—
control
instrument settings.
Query-output commands
—
ask for
data.
Operational commands—
cause
a
particular action.
The
instrument responds to
and executes all commands
when
in the remote state.
When in the local state,
setting
and
operational
commands
generate errors
since instru
ment
functions are under front panel control; only
query
output commands
are
executed.
Each command
begins with a header
—a word
that de
scribes
the
function
implemented.
Many commands require
an argument following the header—
a
word or number that
specifies the desired state for the function.
Using
fewer characters than the abbreviated header
or
argument
should be done with caution since erro
neous
results or damage could result if this data is
sent to the wrong instrument.
>
CAUTION
<
With
the instrument in the AUTO range mode, do not
repeatedly
switch the input voltage between a
low val
ue (<200 mV
peak) and a higher value (>200 V
peak).
For
repeated measurements
alternating be
tween
these voltage extremes, use the STEP range
mode to select an
appropriate higher range before in
creasing
the input voltage.
Failure to do so
may tem
porarily
cause inaccuracy in measurements made
using
the 200 mV
range.
