Parameter Types
1. Consecutive Integer Parameter
The parameters could be an integer within the valid range. For example, setting
the screen brightness from “0~32” through “:SYSTem:DISPlay:BRIGht”. Note do
not set the parameters with decimal, or else an unexpected exception may
occurred.
2. Consecutive Real Number Parameter
Under the precision condition, the parameters could be an arbitrary value within
the valid range (usually the default precision takes six effective digits behind the
decimal point). For example, in command :CALCulate:REL:OFFSet, the
parameters meet the range of the real number in Table 3-2.
3. Discrete Parameters
The parameters can only be the cited value. For example, the parameter of
“:MEASure:VOLTage:AC” could only be 0, 1, 2 or 3.
4. Boolean Parameters
The parameters must be ON, OFF, 0 or 1. For example, in command
“SYSTem:BEEPer:STATe”.
5. ASCII String
The parameter should be a composition of ASCII strings. For example, the
parameter of IP address query command “:UTILity:INTErface:LAN:IP” is a
user-defined string.
