Example TRIG:LEV:RFP –20DBM Remote Command Notes Preset –20dBm State Saved Saved in instrument state. –200dBm 100dBm TRIGger<1|2>[:SEQuence]:LEVel:VIDeo 0 to 100PCT Sets the video trigger level.
Compatible SCPI Commands Supported SCPI Commands TRIGger<1|2>[:SEQuence]:SLOPe Sets the trigger signal slope to positive or negative. The trigger slope setting applies to all trigger sources. Remote Command :TRIGger[1][:SEQuence]:SLOPe POSitive|NEGative :TRIGger[1][:SEQuence]:SLOPe? Example TRIG:SLOP NEG Remote Command Notes FSE, FSP, FSU Preset POSitive State Saved Saved in instrument state.
A Brief Introduction to the SCPI Language Overview Overview This section is not intended to teach you everything about the SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) programming language. The SCPI Consortium or IEEE can provide that level of detailed information. Programming with SCPI requires knowledge of: ...
A Brief Introduction to the SCPI Language Overview accuracy, resolution, and so on. Table 4-1 Common Terms used in this Book Term Description Command An instruction. You combine commands to form messages that control instruments to complete a specified task. In general, a command consists of mnemonics (also known as keywords), parameters and punctuation.
A Brief Introduction to the SCPI Language Overview The command SENS:FREQU:STAR is not valid because FREQU is neither the NOTE short, nor the long form of the command. Command Statement Rules Overview Besides the standard notation of SCPI described above, please remember the following rules in programming: •...

A Brief Introduction to the SCPI Language Overview Units Numeric variables may include units. The valid units for a command depend on the variable type being used. See the following variable descriptions. The indicated default units are used if no units are sent. Units can follow the numerical value with, or without, a space.
A Brief Introduction to the SCPI Language Overview Variable Parameters <ampl> Is a rational number followed by optional units. The default units are dBm. Acceptable units include: dBm, dBmV, dBV. <angle> <degrees> Is a rational number followed by optional units. The default units are degrees. Acceptable units include: DEG, RAD.
A Brief Introduction to the SCPI Language Overview <trace> Is an array of rational numbers corresponding to displayed trace data. See FORMat:DATA for information about available data formats. A SCPI command often refers to a block of current trace data with a variable name such as: Trace1, TRACE2, or trace3, depending on which trace is being accessed.
