SCPI Command Reference
This section describes the Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments (SCPI) commands for the Form C Switch. Commands are listed
alphabetically by subsystem and also within each subsystem.
ABORt
The ABORt command subsystem stops a scan in progress when the scan is
enabled via the interface and the trigger source is TRIGger:SOURce BUS or
TRIGger:SOURce HOLD.
Subsystem Syntax
ABORt
Comments
• ABORt Actions: ABORt invalidates the current channel list and sets
ARM:COUNt 1 (one scanning cycle per INITiate command), sets
INITiate:CONTinuous OFF (no continuous scanning cycles), and
sets TRIGger:SOURce IMMediate (immediate internal triggering).
• Stopping Scan Enabled From Interface: When a scan is enabled
from an interface, an interface CLEAR command or the Agilent
E130lA front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys can be used to
stop the scan. When the scan is enabled from the interface and
TRIG:SOUR BUS or HOLD is set, use ABORt or the Agilent
E130lA front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear Instr" keys to stop the
scan.
• Stopping Scan Enabled From Front Panel: When a scan is
enabled from the Agilent E1301B front panel, you can use *RST
entered via the interface or the front panel "Reset Instr" or "Clear
Instr" keys to stop the scan.
• Related Commands: ARM, INITiate:CONTinuous,
[ROUTe:]SCAN, TRIGger
