Special 488.2 Commands

This section contains information about the response of the switchbox
instrument to three IEEE 488.2 common commands.

Storing States

The *SAV <numeric_state> command saves the current instrument state.
The state number (0-9) is specified by the <numeric_state> parameter. The
settings saved by this command are:

•

ARM:COUNt

•

TRIGger:SOURce

•

OUTput:STATe

•

INITiate:CONTinuous

•

SCAN (the scan list is set to invalid; therefore, the command does
not save a scan list.)

•

SCAN:MODE

•

SCAN:PORT

Recalling States

The *RCL <numeric_state> command recalls the state when the last *SAV
was executed for the specified <numeric_state> parameter (0-9). If no
*SAV was executed for the <numeric_state>, *RST default settings are
used. Refer to the *SAV settings list for the settings recalled by *RCL.

The *RST command opens all channels, invalidates the current channel list
for scanning and sets the following:

•

ARM:COUNt 1

•

TRIGger:SOURce IMM

•

INIT:CONTinuous OFF

•

OUTPut:STATe OFF

•

SCAN:MODE NONE

•

SCAN PORT NONE
