Invoke a terminal application such as Realterm.
For RS-232C, set the COM port, baud rate, stop bit,
data bit and parity accordingly.
To check the COM settings in Windows, see the
Device Manager. For example, in WinXP go to the
Control panel → System → Hardware tab.
Note
If you are not familiar with using a terminal
application to send/receive remote commands from
the serial port or via a USB connection, please page 12
(Using Realterm to Establish a Remote Connection)
for more information.
Run this query command via the terminal after the
instrument has been configured for

Manufacturer: GW-INSTEK
Model number : PEL-3000(H)
Serial number : XXXXXXXXXXXX
Firmware version : V.X.X.X
Note
For further details, please see the programming
manual, available on the GW Instek web site @
www.gwinstek.com.
Background
Realterm is a terminal program that can be used to
communicate with a device attached to the serial
port of a PC or via an emulated serial port via USB.
The following instructions apply to version
1.99.0.27. Even though Realterm is used as an
example to establish a remote connection, any
terminal program can be used that has similar
functionality.
Note
Realterm can be downloaded on Sourceforge.net free
of charge.
For more information please see
http://realterm.sourceforge.net/
Operation
1. Download Realterm and install according to the
instructions on the Realterm website.
2. Connect the PEL-3000(H) via USB (page 9) or
via RS232 (page 10).
3. If using RS232, make note of the configured
baud rate, stop bits and parity.
4. Go to the Windows device manager and find
the COM port number for the connection.
For example, go to the Start menu > Control
Using Realterm to Establish a Remote Connection
12
INTERFACE OVERVIEW
Panel > Device Manager
Double click the Ports icon to reveal the
connected serial port devices and the COM port
for the each connected device.
If using USB, the baud rate, stop bit and parity
settings can be viewed by right-clicking
connected device and selecting the Properties
option.
5. Start Realterm on the PC as an administrator.
Click:
Start menu>All Programs>RealTerm>realterm
Tip: to run as an administrator, you can right
click the Realterm icon in the Windows Start
menu and select the Run as Administrator
option.
6. After Realterm has started, click on the Port tab.
Enter the Baud, Parity, Data bits, Stop bits and
Port number configuration for the connection.
The Hardware Flow Control, Software Flow Control
options can be left at the default settings.
7. Press Open to connect to the PEL-3000(H).

10. If Realterm fails to connect to the PEL-3000(H),
please check all the cables and settings and try
again.

COMMAND OVERVIEW
The Command overview chapter lists all PEL3000(H) commands in functional order as well as
alphabetical order. The command syntax section
shows you the basic syntax rules you have to
apply when using commands.

COMMAND OVERVIEW

SCPI, 1999
Partial compatibility
Command
Structure
SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments) commands follow a tree-like
structure, organized into nodes. Each level of the
command tree is a node. Each keyword in a SCPI
command represents each node in the command
tree. Each keyword (node) of a SCPI command is
separated by a colon (:).
For example, the diagram below shows an SCPI
sub-structure and a command example.
:DYNamic:CRANge :VRANge
[:MODE]:CRANge
:MODE
Command types
There are a number of different instrument
commands and queries. A command sends
instructions or data to the unit and a query
receives data or status information from the unit.
Command types
Simple
A single command with/without
a parameter
Example
:CONFigure:SHORt HOLD
Command Syntax
19
PEL-3000(H) Programming Manual
Query
A query is a simple or compound
command followed by a question
mark (?). A parameter (data) is
returned.
Example
:CONFigure:SHORt?
Compound
Two or more commands on the
same command line. Compound
commands are separated with
either a semi-colon (;) or a semicolon and a colon (;:).
A semi-colon is used to join two
related commands, with the
caveat that the last command
must begin at the last node of the
first command.
A semi-colon and colon are used
to combine two commands from
different nodes.
Example
CONFigure:VON
MAX;:CONFigure:VDELay MIN
Command Forms
Commands and queries have two different forms,
long and short. The command syntax is written
with the short form of the command in capitals
and the remainder (long form) in lower case.
The commands can be written in capitals or lowercase, just so long as the short or long forms are
complete. An incomplete command will not be
recognized.
Below are examples of correctly written
commands.
20
COMMAND OVERVIEW
Long form
:CURRent:LEVel?
:CURRENT:LEVEL?
:current:level?
Short form
:CURR:LEV?
:curr:lev?
Square Brackets
Commands that contain square brackets indicate
that the contents are optional. The function of the
command is the same with or without the square
bracketed items, as shown below
For example for the query:
“[:CONFigure]:GNG [:PASS]?”
Both “:CONFigure:GNG:PASS?” and “:GNG?” are
both valid forms.

[MIN] (Optional
parameter)
For commands, this will set the
setting to the lowest value. This
parameter can be used in place of
any numerical parameter where
indicated.
For queries, it will return the
lowest possible value allowed for
the particular setting.
[MAX] (Optional
parameter)
For commands, this will set the
setting to the highest value. This
parameter can be used in place of
any numerical parameter where
indicated.
For queries, it will return the
highest possible value allowed
for the particular setting.
