SCPI Command Reference
[:ROUTe]:SYMBol:CHANnel
[:ROUTe]:SYMBol:CHANnel
In the GPIB local mode, the B2200 uses 01 to 48 (two digits numbers) to specify the
output ports (channels) 1 to 48 respectively. This command specifies a symbol string
and lets the B2200 use the specified string instead of the two digits number. The
query returns the symbol string.
Maximum value of the two digits number depends on the B2200 configuration. It is
12 for the normal configuration mode or the auto configuration mode with one
matrix card, 24 for the auto configuration mode with two matrix cards, 36 for the
auto configuration mode with three matrix cards, or 48 for the auto configuration
mode with four matrix cards.
Reboot, *RST, and :SYSTem:CPON clear the symbol strings. After that, the initial
symbol string (two digits numbers 01 to 48) will be set.

This example assigns the string GATE to the output port 10. After that, GATE is used
instead of 10. In this example, A$ will be GATE.
