Duplicate Mnemonics

Identical function mnemonics can be used in more than one subsystem. For

example, the function mnemonic RANGE may be used to change the vertical

range or to change the horizontal range:

:CHANNEL1:RANGE .4

sets the vertical range of channel 1 to 0.4 volts full scale.

:TIMEBASE:RANGE 1

sets the horizontal time base to 1 second full scale.

CHANNEL1 and TIMEBASE are subsystem selectors and determine which

range is being modified.
