Command Syntax
The commands are partially compatible with IEEE488.2 (1992) and SCPI
(1994) standard. Commands are NON-case sensitive.
Example command conf:volt:dc _1
1 2 3
1: Command Header
2: Single space
3: Parameter
Parameter example Boolean Boolean logic: 0 or 1. Used for On (1) or
Off (0) command.
NR1 Integer: 0, 1, 2, 3.....
NR2 Decimal number: 0.0, 0.1, 0.2,....
NR3 Floating point number: 4.5e-1, 8.5e+1,...
min, max The GDM-8200A series automatically
translates to Minimum (min) or Maximum
(max) value available.
Automatic
parameter range
selection The GDM-8200A series automatically translates the
command parameter into the closest available value.
Example 1 conf:volt:dc_1 (Sets the measurement
item to DC Voltage and the range to 1V).
the GDM-8200A series selects the 1V
range.
Example 2 conf:volt:dc_2 (Sets the measurement
item to DC Voltage and the range to 2V).
There is no 2V range so the
GDM-8200A series selects the closest
range, 10V.
