and explains interface setting.
Remote Control Overview
See
In addition to using the front panel, the TOS3200 can be controlled remotely using the following interfaces (equipped as standard).
• RS232C interface
• GPIB interface
•USB interface
The GPIB, RS232C, and USB interfaces cannot be used simultaneously.
The remote interface complies with IEEE Std 488.2-1992 and SCPI Specification 1999.0.
p. 14
Use the SCPI commands only after you have understood the SCPI command syntax for the
TOS3200.
If the TOS3200 is operating under remote control, the RMT LED on the front panel will illuminate. To switch from the remote mode to the local mode (panel operation) from the panel,
press the LOCAL key.

Remote Control Overview
VISA Library
If you are using a VISA library (VISA COM) for the I/O library, the VISA library must be
installed on the PC.
A device driver supporting USB T&M Class (USBTMC) is required to control the TOS3200
through the USB interface. The USBTMC driver is automatically installed by the VISA library.
VISA (Virtual Instrument Software Architecture) is a specification for standard software for
connecting instruments that was defined by the VXIplug&play Systems Alliance.
One of the VISA libraries (driver software implemented in compliance with the VISA specifications) below is necessary.
Older version of VISA libraries does not support USB. USB functions cannot be used on Windows 95 or Windows NT 3.5x or 4.0.
• NI-VISA by National Instruments (Ver. 3.0 or later, Ver. 3.2 or later for Windows 2000 and
• Agilent VISA by Agilent Technologies (Agilent IO Libraries M01.00 or later)
• KI-VISA Ver. 3.0.0 or later
KI-VISA is Kikusui original VISA library compatible with VXIplug&play VISA Specifications
3.0. The latest version can be downloaded from Kikusui website (http://www.kikusui.co.jp/en/
download/). KI-VISA is not required if NI-VISA or Agilent VISA is already installed.

SCPI language Overview
This chapter explains the SCPI command structure, syntax,
and parameters.
Overview of Messages
The information that is exchanged between the PC and the TOS3200 is called a message.
The TOS3200 uses the SCPI language for the messages.
There are two types of messages, commands that are sent from the PC to the TOS3200 and
responses that are sent from the TOS3200 to the PC.
Commands are used to execute functions of the TOS3200, change settings, and query settings and statuses. Responses return the settings and statuses of the TOS3200.
SCPI Command Syntax
Command hierarchy
The SCPI is an ASCII-based command language designed for test and measurement
devices. The command hierarchy is structured around the common root or node, which is the
construction block of the SCPI sub system. A command consists of a program header,
parameters, and punctuations.
The hierarchy is explained using the SYSTem subsystem as an example.
Program header Parameter Node hierarchy
:SYSTem Root node
:BEEP 2nd level
:VOLume 3rd level
:FAIL <numeric> 4th level
:PASS <numeric> 4th level
:DATE <nrf>,<nrf>,<nrf> 2nd level
:ERRor 2nd level
[:NEXT] <code>, “<description>” 3rd level
A higher node is separated from a lower node using a colon (:).
14 TOS3200
SCPI Command Syntax
Command syntax
This manual denotes SCPI commands using the following format.
(Example)
SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume:FAIL {<numeric>|MINimum|MAXimum}
• There are two forms of SCPI commands, the long form in which the command is written
out in its entirety and the short form in which the letters written in lowercase are omitted.
SCPI commands can be sent in the long form or short form.
• SCPI commands are not case sensitive. VOL, Vol, and vol are all accepted as short
forms of VOLTage.
VOLUME, Volume, volume are all accepted as long forms.
• A space is required between the program header section and the parameter section.
• Multiple parameters, when available, are concatenated using commas.
• Compound commands can be created by concatenating two commands with a semicolon.
(Example)
SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume:FAIL MINimum;PASS MINimum
This compound command is the same as entering the following two commands.
SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume:FAIL MINimum
SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume:PASS MINimum
The first command, SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume:FAIL, sets the path to SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume. Therefore, SYSTem:BEEP:VOLume, can be omitted in the second command.
An error occurs if a node that is not defined in the current path (except FAIL and PASS) is
designated.
2
SCPI language Overview
• A colon is required between program headers.
• Commands of different subsystems can be concatenated using colons and semicolons.
(Example)
SYSTem:CONFigure:PHOLd MINimum;:MEASure:CURRent?
This compound command contains two root nodes, SYSTem and MEASure.
If the second or subsequent command starts with a colon, the path specified by the previous
command will be cleared.
• The maximum number of characters that can be transmitted in a single line is 128.
Special symbols and characters
Special symbols and characters used in this manual to describe SCPI commands are defined
as indicated in the following.
Symbols or
characters
< >
{ }
[ ]
Description
Characters strings inside the < and > symbols indicate program data.
Do not include these symbols in the actual program.
Characters and numbers delimited by “|” in braces indicate that one of
the items is to be selected.
Do not include the braces in the actual program.
Characters strings inside brackets indicate optional data.
When option data is not sent with the program, the default value will
be sent. Do not include the brackets in the actual program.
TOS3200 15
SCPI Command Syntax
See
Query
The device settings or status can be queried.
To make a query, add a question mark at the end of the program header section. If a query
has parameters, enter a space after the question mark followed by the parameters.
(Example)
CURRent? MIN
When transmitting two queries in separate lines, read the response to the first query before
transmitting the second line. If you send two lines of query commands at once, an incomplete response may be received.
String termination
All commands must be terminated using a valid terminator.
The available terminators are <line feed> (ASCII 0x0A) and EOI (end-or-identify).
Either one can be used as a terminator.
Because EOI is not available on the RS232C, be sure to use <line feed>.
If a command string is terminated, the path will be reset to the root level.
p. 21
CR (ASCII 0x0D) is not a terminator.
Common commands
The IEEE-488.2 and SCPI standards contain a set of common commands for reset, self-test,
and other functions. These common commands always start with an asterisk. The commands
may have one or multiple parameters.
16 TOS3200
Parameters
The parameter format of SCPI is derived from the program parameter format defined in IEEE
488.2.
The representation system of the program data that is used on the TOS3200 is indicated
below.
Non-numeric parameters
The TOS3200 uses the following three types of non-numeric parameters.
2
Symbols or
characters
Character string
data
(String)
Character data
(Character)
Boolean data
(Boolean)
Description
Used when a series of ASCII characters are requested.
Be sure to enclose a string in single quotations or double quotations.
The start and end quotation marks must match.
(Example) NETWork "A"
If you want to use a quotation mark as a part of the string, enter two
quotation marks consecutively (with no characters in between). ASCII
codes 20H to 7EH can be used.
Used when only a limited number of values is available for the program setting.
Responses are returned in the short form.
(Example) CURRent:RANGe:SELect {LOW|MEDium|HIGH}
Expresses a 1 or 0 condition or an ON or OFF condition.
Responses are returned as 1 or 0.
(Example) SYSTem:CONFigure:TRACe {ON|OFF|1|0}
Numeric parameters
The TOS3200 uses the following five types of numeric parameters.
Symbols or
characters
NR1
NR2
NR3
NRf NRf is a generic term that includes NR1, NR2, and NR3.
Numeric
Description
Represents an integer.
Represents a real number (floating point).
Represents a real number (exponential).
The value +3.80000+E02 is returned for the response data 380. The
number of digits to the right of the decimal is 5.
Represents a decimal point, optional sign, and measurement unit.
The numeric representation syntax is the same as NRf.
MINimum and MAXimum are available as substitutes for declaring
certain values.
Units such as V, A, and S can also be used in a numeric parameter.
If a value that cannot be assigned is entered, the device will round the
value to the closest possible value.
(Example) SYSTem:BEEPer:VOLume:FAIL 20
The range of values for SYST:BEEP:VOL:FAIL is 0 to 10. Thus, 10 is
set even if 20 is specified.
*1

SCPI language Overview
*1. Details are given in the IEEE 488.2 Standard Digital Interface for Programmable Instrumen-
tation.
TOS3200 17
Parameters
Special form numeric parameter
The special form numeric parameters MINimum and MAXimum can be used as substitutes
for limit values when the parameter is numeric.
In the example below, the buzzer volume for FAIL judgments is to the minimum value.
SYSTem:BEEPer:VOLume:FAIL MINimum
The minimum and maximum values can be inquired for most parameters using queries.
CURRent:LIMit:UPPer? MAX
Measurement unit
Below are the default measurement units. Commands will be accepted even if measurement
units are not specified.
• A (current)
• V (voltage)
• W (wattage)
• S (second)
The following optional prefixes are supported. To enter “µ” in the parameter, use “U” instead.
• M (milli)
•U (micro)
The unit symbols in the International System of Units contain lowercase characters. The
IEEE standard uses uppercase characters. SCPI commands are not case sensitive.
