Command Types
Commands are separated into two types: IEEE-488.2 Common Commands
and SCPI Commands.
Common
Command Format
The IEEE-488.2 standard defines Common Commands that perform
functions like reset, self-test, status byte query, etc. Common commands are
four or five characters in length, always begin with the asterisk character
(*), and may include one or more parameters. The command keyword is
separated from the first parameter by a space character. Some examples of
Common commands are shown below:
*RST, *CLS, *ESE <unmask>, *OPC?, *STB?
SCPI Command Format
The functions of the summing amplifier/DAC are programmed using SCPI
commands. SCPI commands are based on a hierarchical structure, also
known as a tree system. In this system, associated commands are grouped
together under a common node or root, thus, forming subtrees or
subsystems. An example is the amplifier’s ’OUTPut2’ subsystem shown on
the following page.
