TABLE 3. IEEE 488.2 COMMANDS/QUERIES
COMMAND Function
*CLS Clear Status Command - clears status data.
*ESE, ? Standard Event Status Enable Command pro-
grams Standard Event Status Enable register,
Query returns register mask.
*ESR? Event Status Register Query returns register con-
tents, then clears register.
*IDN? Identification Query returns identification charac-
ter string.
*OPC, ? Operation Complete Command causes power sup-
ply to set status bit 0 (Operation Complete) when
pending operations are complete When Query
returns “1” operations are complete.
*OPT? Options Query lists option functionality.
*RCL Recall Command restores power supply to previ-
ously saved settings.
*RST Rest Command resets power supply to power on
default state.
*SAV Save Command saves present power supply set-
tings for later recall.
*SRE, ? Service Request Enable Command sets the condi-
tion of Service Request Enable register. Query
reads register.
*STB Status Byte Register Query reads Status Byte
Register without clearing it.
*TRG Trigger Command triggers power supply to prepro-
grammed values of output current and voltage.
*TST? Self Test Query Initiates power supply self test.
*WAI Wait-To-Continue Command requires completion
of previously issued commands and queries before
continuing.
TABLE 4. SCPI COMMANDS/QUERIES
COMMAND Function
INIT[:IMM] INITiate[:IMMediate] Command enables a single
trigger.
INIT:CONT, ? INITiate:CONTinuous Command enables/disables
continuous triggers; query shows trigger enabled/
disabled status.
MEAS:CURR? MEASure[:SCALar]:CURRent[:DC]? Query mea-
sures actual current.
MEAS:VOLT? MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage[:DC]? Query mea-
sures actual voltage.
OUTP, ? OUTPut[:STATe] Command enables (1 or ON) or
disables (0 or OFF) the power supply output.
Query shows if output is on (1) or off (0).
FUNC:MODE, ? [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE Command estab-
lishes operating mode of power supply VOLT =
voltage, CURR = current. Query shows mode.
FUNC:MODE
:TRIG, ?
[SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE:TRIGger establishes
operating mode of power supply when TRIGger
command is sent. Query returns mode pro-
grammed.
LIST:CLE [SOURce:]LIST:CLEar Command Clears all list
entries by setting all pointers to 0.
LIST:COUN, ? SOURce:]LIST:COUNt Command establishes how
many times the list is executed. Query shows pro-
grammed setting.
LIST:COUN
:SKIP
[SOURce:]LIST:COUNt:SKIP Command allows
beginning steps of list-generated waveform to be
run once, then ignored. Query shows how many
steps to skip after the first time.
LIST:CURR, ? SOURce:]LIST:CURRent Command adds current
value (in Amps) to list. Query identifies parameters
(main channel) entered for list.
LIST:CURR
:POIN?
[SOURce:]LIST:CURRent:POINts? Query identi-
fies the total number of points in a list and next
location to be filled.
LIST:DIR, ? [SOURce:]LIST:DIRection Command establishes
which direction to run list. Query shows pro-
grammed direction.
LIST:DWEL, ? [SOURce:]LIST:DWELl Command determines how
long the main channel parameters will be active.
Query shows programmed dwell times.
LIST:DWEL
:POIN?
[SOURce:]LIST:DWELl:POINts? Query identifies
number of locations with dwell times.
LIST:GEN, ? [SOURce:]LIST:GENeration Command establishes
the order for executing the list. Query shows selec-
tion of either default or user sequence.
LIST:QUER, ? [SOURce:]LIST:QUERy Command determines first
location to be queried by LIST:SEQ?; Query shows
programmed location.
LIST:MODE, ? [SOURce:]LIST:MODE Command determines
dwell time resolution SLOW (default) or FAST.
Query shows mode.
LIST:SEQ, ? [SOURce:]LIST:SEQuence Command determines
execution order for list data points (not recom-
mended for new designs). Query shows user exe-
cution sequence for list.
