Parameter Type
The command parameters introduced in this manual include 6 types: Bool, Keyword, Integer, Consecutive
Real Number, Discrete, and ASCII String.
1. Bool
The parameter can be set to OFF (0) or ON (1).
2. Keyword
The parameter can be any of the values listed.
3. Integer
Unless otherwise specified, the parameter can be any integer within the effective value range. Note:
Do not set the parameter to a decimal, otherwise, errors will occur.
4. Consecutive Real Number
Unless otherwise specified, the parameter could be any value within the effective value range
according to the accuracy requirement (by default, there are 9 digits after the decimal point).
5. Discrete
The parameter could only be one of the specified values and these values are discontinuous.
6. ASCII String
The parameter can be the combinations of ASCII characters.
Command Abbreviation
All the commands are case-insensitive. They can all be written in upper case or in lower case. For
abbreviations, you only need to input all the upper-case letters in the command. For example,
:CALCulate:BANDwidth:NDB? can be abbreviated as :CALC:BAND:NDB? or :calc:band:ndb?
