6 Remote Control - Description of Commands
Notation
In the following sections, all commands implemented in the instrument are first listed in tables and then
described in detail, arranged according to the command subsystems. The notation is adapted to the
SCPI standard. The SCPI conformity information is included in the individual description of the
commands.
Table of Commands
Command: In the command column, the table provides an overview of the commands
and their hierarchical arrangement (see indentations).
Parameter: The parameter column indicates the requested parameters together with
their specified range.
Unit: The unit column indicates the basic unit of the physical parameters.
Comment: In the comment column an indication is made on:
– whether the command does not have a query form,
– whether the command has only one query form
– whether the command is implemented only with a certain option of the
instrument
Indentations The different levels of the SCPI command hierarchy are represented in the
table by means of indentations to the right. The lower the level, the further
the indentation to the right. Please note that the complete notation of the
command always includes the higher levels as well.
Example: SENSe:FREQuency:CENTer is represented in the table as
follows:
SENSe first level
:FREQuency second level
:CENTer third level
Individual description The individual description contains the complete notation of the command. An
example for each command, the *RST value and the SCPI information are
included as well.
The operating modes for which a command can be used are indicated by
the following abbreviations:
R Receiver
A Spectrum analysis
A-F Spectrum analysis - frequency domain only
A-Z Spectrum analysis - time domain only (zero span)
FM FM demodulator (option R&S FS-K7)
Note: The receiver and spectrum analysis modes are implemented in
the basic unit. For the other modes, the corresponding options
are required.
