SYSTEM SCPI Command Reference
The letter “C” in the “SCPI” column means that the command syntax is
SCPI compliant; an “N” in the “SCPI” column means that the command
syntax is not part of the SCPI definition.
Command
Description
SCPI
SYSTem
System subsystem.
:ERRor?
Queries Error Queue for next error/event entry (first in, first out).
Entries contain an error number and descriptive text. A 0 return
value indicates no error occurred; negative numbers are reserved by
SCPI. The maximum return string length is 255 characters. The
queue holds up to 10 error/entries. All entries are cleared by the
*CLS command.
C
:FAULt?
Returns four numeric values separated by commas for the four
system fault registers. See System Fault Registers (Table 6-7).
Valid response is 128, 0, 0, 0 or 0, 0, 0, 0.
Response:
N
:LOCAL
Forces the supply to local or remote state.
noteworthy circumstances where this command may prove
necessary. The first case involves using RS232 to communicate with
the supply, since the normal GPIB mechanisms for transition between
local and remote and back again do not exist when using RS232.
The other case is when the REMOTE/LOCAL switch S1-1 is placed in
the ON position—thereby disabling the GPIB mechanism for
transition from remote to local.
N
:LOCAL?
Returns ON or 1 if in local mode.
Returns OFF or 0 if in remote mode.
N
:LOCKout
The SYST:LOCAL:LOCKOUT <0|1|OFF|ON> command provides a
means of controlling the local lockout functionality that is an
alternative to the low level GPIB LLO command. Note: This
command only works when Remote mode startup switch is ON.
In contrast, using the GPIB LLO low level command causes the
supply to be placed into the local lockout state. To place the supply
into the local lockout state, use the SYST:LOCAL:LOCKOUT
command.
N
:LOCKOUT?
Returns 0 (off) or 1 (on)
