Features not available in one of the language modes is marked by a
horizontal line in the corresponding column. In the interest of brevity
all SCPI commands have been listed in their most concise form.
For a complete and comprehensive listing of the synthesizer SCPI
commands refer to “SCPI Command Summary,” in Chapter 2. For
explanations of SCPI refer to “Getting Started Programming,” in
Chapter 1.
Numeric Suffixes
Numeric suffixes consist of 2 or
3-character
codes that terminate and
scale an associated value. The numeric suffixes for network analyzer
language on the HP 8360 series and the HP 8340/8341 are identical.
Table 3-7 lists the HP 8360 series suffixes. The default unit for each
type of suffix is shown in bold type.

Status Bytes
There are two separate and distinct status structures within the
HP 8360, series depending on the HP-IB language selected. When
network analyzer language is selected, the status structure utilized
is structurally and syntactically the same as on the HP 8340/8341.
This greatly enhances programming compatibility between existing
HP 8340/8341 programs and network analyzer programs converted or
written for the HP 8360 series.
In the SCPI language mode, the status structure is defined by the
SCPI status system. All SCPI instruments implement status registers
in the same fashion.
For more information on the status registers consult “Analyzer
Status Register” and “SCPI Status Register,” in Chapter 2.
