Parameter Type
1. MIN|MAX|DEF
Usually, MIN, MAX and DEF are used to represent the maximum, minimum and
default values of a parameter. For example, in the command
“:MEASure:VOLTage:DC
{0|1|2|3|4|MIN|MAX|DEF}”,
MIN corresponds to 0, MAX corresponds to 4 and DEF corresponds to 2. For more
details, please refer to “:MEASure:VOLTage:DC”.
2. Consecutive Integer Parameter
The parameter can be any integer within the effective range. Please do not set
the parameter to a decimal; otherwise, error may occur. For example, in the
command ":SYSTem:DISPlay:BRIGht", the parameter can be any integer
within 0 and 255.
3. Consecutive Real Number Parameter
The parameter can be any value within the effective range according to the
precision requirement. For example, in the command
":CALCulate:NULL:OFFSet", the parameter can hold seven digits after the
decimal point.
4. Discrete Parameter
The parameter should be one of the values listed in the command. For example,
in the command ":MEASure:VOLTage:AC", the parameter can only be 0, 1, 2, 3
or 4.
5. Bool Parameter
The parameter can only be ON (1) or OFF (0). For example, in the command
“:SYSTem:BEEPer:STATe”, the parameter can only be ON (1) or OFF (0).
6. ASCII Character string
The parameter should be a combination of ASCII characters. For example, in the
command ":SYSTem:CLOCk:DATE”, the parameter is a character string in date
format.
