Equivalent COM Command
The Analyzer command system description is based on the SCPI command system because this system is used primarily in this manual. In addition, the structure of COM objects and their names are borrowed from the SCPI command system. In this manual, COM commands are presented as equivalent to SCPI commands. The description of COM commands shows differences in their function from SCPI commands. If the SCPI command does not have a COM equivalent, this is noted in its description.
