SCPI Command Summary

SCPI Device Command Summary

NOTE

NOTE


This SCPI command reference is also available online. It is stored inside your analyzer in electronic form. To use it, you must connect your instrument to the network, and access it using your Web browser. See the The LAN Interface User’s Guide Supplement for details.

Throughout this chapter, the following conventions are used:

• Square brackets ( [ ] ) are used to enclose a keyword that is optional or implied when programming the command; that is, the instrument will process the command to have the same effect whether the option node is omitted or not.

• Parameter types ( < > ) are distinguished by enclosing the type name in angle brackets.

• A vertical bar ( | ) can be read as “or” and is used to separate alternative parameter options.

• UPPER -case letters (as found in the command MODify , for example) are used to indicate the short form of a given mnemonic. The remaining lower-case letters are the rest of the long form mnemonic.

1. Refer to

Chapter 6 , "Trace Data Transfers," and to the ASCDATA and REALDATA

example programs in the Example Programs Guide for more information on this command.

2. The parameter type of the data is determined by the format selected — FORMat

REAL uses BLOCK data, FORMat ASCii uses NR3 data separated by commas.

Register Description

Outputs 8-bit data to the Cent_D0 through D7 lines of the

Centronics port. Cent_D0 is the least significant bit,

Cent_D7 is the most significant bit. Checks Centronics status lines for:

• Out of Paper

• Printer Not on Line

• BUSY

• ACKNOWLEDGE

Sets/clears the user bit according to the least significant bit of A. A least significant bit equal to 1 sets the user bit high.

A least significant bit of 0 clears the user bit.

Sets/clears the limit pass/fail bit according to the least significant bit of A. A least significant bit equal to 1 sets the pass/fail bit high. A least significant bit of 0 clears the pass/fail bit.

Outputs 8-bit data to the Cent_D0 through D7 lines of the

Centronics port. Cent_D0 is the least significant bit,

Cent_D7 is the most significant bit. Does not check

Centronics status lines.

Outputs a byte to the serial port. The byte is output serially according to the configuration for the serial port.

When using the WRITEIO(15,0) or WRITEIO(15,3) command, the

Printer_Select Line is set high. However, when the instrument is doing hardcopy, the Printer_Select Line is set low. The Printer_Select line may or may not be used by individual printers. Check with your printer manual.
