SEQU
Description: Command causes sequence in buffer to be used and sequence user interface to appear. If
name in buffer is NULL, then the normal user interface is returned. Query returns name of
sequence currently being used.
SIZE <size>
Limits: <size>
-32 to -1 or 1 to 32 bits
Description: The SIZE command sets the field size (in base 10) used in connection with the GETA, GETR,
PUTA, and PUTR commands. If a negative size is specified, then values given (or returned)
are sign extended to 32 bits. For example, if SIZE = -16 and a 16 bit field containing FFFF hex
is fetched, then the value FFFFFFFF hex is returned. The SIZE? query returns the current
setting of SIZE in base 10. SIZE is preset to 16 each time the generator is powered on.
SMOD <mode>
Limits: <mode>
0 = Disable
1 = Enable step mode
2 = Enable wrap mode
3 = Run
Description: Command changes the sequence mode. Query returns the current sequence mode.
SNUM <color1> <x> <y>
Description: Displays the current sequence step number if the image is used in a sequence. The number is
drawn using the given color at the given x,y position.
SSST <type>
Limits: <type>
0 = no sync
1 = digital separate horizontal & vertical sync ( DSS )
2 = digital separate composite sync ( DCS )
3 = Both DSS and DCS
4 = analog composite sync ( ACS )
5 = Both ACS and DSS
6 = Both ACS and DCS
7 = All ACS, DCS and DSS
Description: The SSST command selects the type of sync signal that is used to synchronize the display. In
general, any one of three different types of sync can be selected to synchronize the display.
The availability of different sync types is specified using the ASCT, DSCT, and DSST
commands. Some displays may not accept one (or more) types of sync. For example, a digital
video monitor cannot accept analog composite sync because analog signal transmission is not
used. Also, a PGA display cannot accept digital separate HS & VS because only one sync
wire is provided in the cabling. In these cases, one (or more) of the sync types (ASCT, DSCT,
or DSST) will be set to zero indicating that they are not supported. If a non-supported sync
type is selected using the SSST command, then the corresponding sync outputs of the
generator will remain disabled. The SSST? query returns the type of sync (if any) that is
currently selected.
STEP <step #>
Limits: <step>
Any valid step number in current sequence
Description: Command causes the specified step of the current sequence to be loaded. Query returns the
current step number.
