Introduction to SCPI commands

SCPI is the abbreviation of Programmable Instrument Standard Commands. It defines a set of standard
syntax and commands for controlling programmable test and measurement instruments. SCPI
commands are ASCII strings that are passed into the instrument through the physical transport layer.
The command consists of a series of keywords, and some also need to include parameters. In the
protocol, the command is specified as the following form: CONFigure. In use, you can either write the
full name or only the abbreviation that contains only uppercase letters. Usually, the feedback of the
instrument to the query command is also an ASCII code.

Command format

Commands usually begin with a colon ":". Keywords are separated by a colon ":", and keywords are
followed by optional parameter settings. A question mark "?" is added after the command line to
indicate that this function is being queried. The command keyword and the first parameter are
separated by a space.
For example:
:ACQuire:TYPE
:ACQuire:TYPE?
ACQuire is the root keyword of the command, and TYPE is the second-level keyword. The command
line starts with a colon ":", and the keywords of each level are separated with a colon ":". indicates a
parameter that can be set. The question mark "?" Indicates a query. Command keyword: ACQuire:
TYPE and parameter are separated by spaces.
In some commands with parameters, multiple parameters are usually separated by a comma ",",
for example:
[:TRACe[<n>]]:DATA:VALue volatile,<points>,<data>

Symbol Description

The following symbols are not sent with the command.

1. Braces {}
The contents of the braces are parameter options. Parameter items are usually separated by a vertical
bar "|". When using a command, you must select one of the parameters.

2. Vertical bar |
Vertical bar is used to separate multiple parameter options. One of the parameters must be selected
when using the command.

3. Square brackets []
The content in square brackets is omissible.

4. Triangle brackets <>
The parameters in the triangle brackets must be replaced with a valid value.

Command abbreviation

All commands are not case sensitive, you can use all uppercase or lowercase. But if you want to
abbreviate, you must enter all capital letters in the command format.

For example:
:MEASure:ADISplay? Can be abbreviated to :MEAS:ADIS?

:CHANnel<n> commands are used to set or query the vertical system parameters such as bandwidth
limit, coupling, vertical scale, and vertical offset of the analog channel of the oscilloscope.

Command List

⚫ CHANnel<n>:BWLimit
⚫ CHANnel<n>:COUPling
⚫ CHANnel<n>:DISPlay
⚫ CHANnel<n>:INVert
⚫ CHANnel<n>:OFFSet
⚫ CHANnel<n>:SCALe
⚫ CHANnel<n>:PROBe
⚫ CHANnel<n>:VERNier

1.1 CHANnel<n>:BWLimit

Command

:CHANnel<n>:BWLimit <type>
:CHANnel<n>:BWLimit?

Description

Set or query the parameters of bandwidth limit for the indicated channel.

Parameters

:<type>::= {{1 | ON} | {0 | OFF}
:<n>::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4}

State

▷OFF: Turn off the 20MHz bandwidth limit, and the high-frequency components
contained in the measured signal can pass.
▷ON: Turn on the bandwidth limitation, and the high-frequency components contained in
the signal under test are attenuated.
Turning on bandwidth limiting reduces waveform noise, but attenuates high-frequency
components.

Return

The query returns 0 or 1.

Example

:CHANnel1:BWLimit 1 /*Enable 20MHz bandwidth limit*/
:CHANnel1:BWLimit? /*The query returns 1*/

1.2 CHANnel<n>:COUPling

Command

:CHANnel<n>:COUPling <coupling>
:CHANnel<n>:COUPling?

Description

Set or query the connection of the indicated channel signal.

Parameters

:<coupling> ::= {AC | DC | GND}
:<n>::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4}

State

▷AC: The DC component of the signal under test is blocked.
▷DC: Both the DC and AC components of the signal under test can pass.
▷GND: Both the DC and AC components of the signal under test are blocked

:CHANnel1:INVert? /*The query returns 1*/

Command

:CHANnel<n>:OFFSet <offset> [<suffix>]
:CHANnel<n>:OFFSet?

Description

Sets or queries the vertical displacement of the specified channel. The default unit is
V.

Parameters

:<offset> ::= Vertical offset value in NR3 format
:<suffix> ::= {V | mV}
:<n>::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4}

State

▷The range of legal values varies with the vertical scale and probe ratio. If 21 / 136

you set an offset outside the legal range, the offset value will be automatically set to
the closest legal value.

Return

The query returns the vertical displacement value in scientific notation.

Example

:CHANnel1:OFFSet 1V /*Set the vertical offset of CH1 to 1V*/
:CHANnel1:OFFSet? /*The query returns 1*/

1.7 CHANnel<n>:PROBe

1.8 CHANnel<n>:VERNier

Command

:CHANnel<n>:SCALe <scale> [<suffix>]
:CHANnel<n>:SCALe?

Description

Sets or queries the vertical scale of the specified channel. The default unit is V.

Parameters

:<scale> ::= vertical units per division in NR3 format
:<suffix> ::= {V | mV}
:<n>::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4}

State

▷CHANnel<n>:SCALe command to setup each channel’s vertical scale.The settable

range of the vertical scale is related to the currently set probe ratio (set by the:
▷CHANnel : PROBe command).

Return

The query returns the vertical scale value in scientific notation.

Example

:CHANnel1:SCALe 1V /*Set the vertical scale to 1V*/
:CHANnel1:SCALe?/*The query returns 1.000e + 00*/

Command

:CHANnel<n>:PROBe <atten>
:CHANnel<n>:PROBe?

Description

Set or query the probe factor of the specified channel.

Parameters

:<atten> ::= {1 | 10 | 100 | 1000}
:<n>::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4}

State

▷Set the probe factor, which is displayed after multiplying the acquired signal by a
specified multiple (does not affect the actual amplitude of the signal).
▷Setting the probe ratio affects the settable range of the current vertical scale.

Return

The query returns the probe attenuation ratio in scientific notation.

Example

:CHANnel1:PROBe 10 /*Set the probe attenuation ratio to 10X*/
:CHANnel1:PROBe? /*The query returns 1.000000e + 01*/

Command

:CHANnel<n>:VERNier <bool>
:CHANnel<n>:VERNier?

Description

Turn the fine adjustment function of the vertical scale of the specified channel on or
off, or query the status of the fine adjustment function of the vertical scale of the
specified channel.

Parameters

:<bool> ::= {{1 | ON} | {0 | OFF}}
:<n>::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4}

State

The trim setting is off by default. At this time, you can only set the vertical scale in 1­2-5 steps, that is, 500u, 1mV, 2mV, 5mV, 10mV ... 10V (probe ratio is 1X). When the
trim setting is on, you can further adjust the vertical scale within a smaller range to
improve vertical resolution. If the amplitude of the input waveform is slightly larger
than the full scale in the current scale, and the amplitude displayed by the waveform
of the next gear is slightly lower, you can use fine adjustment to improve the
waveform display amplitude to facilitate observation of signal details.

Return

The query returns 1 or 0.

sampled multiple times to reduce random noise on the input signal and
improve vertical resolution. The number of averages can be set by the: ACQuire:
AVERages command. The higher the number of averages, the lower the noise
and the higher the vertical resolution, but the slower the response of the
displayed waveform to waveform changes.
▷PEAK (Peak Detection): In this mode, the oscilloscope collects the maximum

and minimum values of the sampling interval signal to obtain the signal
envelope or narrow pulses that may be lost. Using this mode can avoid aliasing
of the signal, but the display noise is relatively large.
▷HRESolution (high resolution): This mode uses an oversampling technique to

average the neighboring points of the sampled waveform to reduce random
noise on the input signal and produce a smoother waveform on the screen. It is
usually used when the sampling rate of the digitizer is higher than the storage
rate of the acquisition memory.

Return

The query returns NORM, AVERage, PEAK, or HRESolution.

Example

:ACQuire:TYPE AVERage /*Set the acquisition method to average*/
:ACQuire:TYPE? /*The query returns AVERage*/

State

Parameters <pa_ch1> to <pa_ch4> set the pattern of the analog channels CH1
to CH4, and parameters <pa_D10> to <pa_D43> set the pattern of the digital
channel.
The user can send 20 parameters to set the pattern of all channels, or omit
some parameters to set the pattern of some channels (the channel is omitted, the
pattern status remains the same), but at least one parameter needs to be sent (the
parameter sets CH1 Pattern). When less than 20 parameters are sent, the instrument
defaults to set CH1 to CH4 and D10 to D43 in turn.
In the parameter value range, H means high level (above the threshold level of the
channel),
L means low level (below the threshold level of the channel), X means ignore this
channel (this channel is not part of the pattern, when all channels are set to X, the
oscilloscope will not trigger).

Return

The query returns the pattern currently set for 4 analog channels or all channels.
Multiple channels are separated by commas.

Example

:TRIGger:PATTern:PATTern H,R,L,X /*Set the code pattern of CH1 to CH4 to H, R,

Description

Send a signal source burst once

Command

:DDS:ARB:DAC16:BIN <binary_block_data>

Description

Download waveform data, <binary_block_data> means to download binary data,
<binary_block_data> is a binary data block starting with # sign, "#508192" binary
data, "5" after "#" means there are 5 characters representing data length information ,
"8192" means that there are 8192 bytes representing binary data. Each waveform
point corresponds to a binary number of two bytes (for example, the point 1024
corresponds to a binary number of 0x0400, the low byte of the data is in front, and
the high byte is in the back, so it is 0004), so the number of bytes must be an even
number.
Note: The number of arbitrary waveform points must be 4096
