SCPI Command Reference
This section describes the Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments (SCPI) commands for the Microwave Switch modules.
Commands are listed alphabetically by subsystem and also within each
subsystem.
ABORt
The ABORt subsystem stops a scan in progress when the scan is enabled via
the interface, and the trigger modes are
TRIGger:SOURce BUS or
TRIGger:SOURce HOLD.
Subsystem Syntax ABORt
Comments • ABORt Operation invalidates the current channel list and sets
ARM:COUNt 1 (one scanning cycle per INITiate command), sets
INITiate CONTinuous OFF (no continuous scanning cycles), and sets
TRIGger:SOURce IMMediate (continuous internal triggering).
• Stopping Scans Enabled from Interface: When a scan is enabled
from the interface, use an interface
CLEAR command or the HP
E1301 front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" key to stop the scan.
When the scan is enabled from the interface and the trigger source is
TRIGger:SOURce BUS or TRIGger:SOURce HOLD, use ABORt or
the HP E1301 front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys to stop
the scan.
• Stopping Scans Enabled from Front Panel: When a scan is
enabled from the HP E1301 front panel, execute
*RST over the
interface or the front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys to stop
the scan.
