SCPI Command Reference 17-91
Control beeper
[:IMMediate] <freq, time>
:SYSTem:BEEPer[:IMMediate] <freq, time>
Parameters freq = 65 to 2e6 Specify frequency in Hz
time = 0 to 7.9 Specify time duration
NOTE The frequency and time values must be separated by a comma (i.e., :syst:beep
100, 3).
Description The beeper of the SourceMeter can be used to provide an audible signal at a
specified frequency and time duration (up to 7.9 seconds @ 65Hz). This
beeper can, for example, be used to signal the end of a lengthy sweep.
Example: :SYSTem:BEEPer 500, 1 Beep at 500Hz for 1 second
The correlation between the duration and frequency of the beep is expressed
as follows:
Maximum Time = 512/ Frequency
For example, at a frequency of 512Hz, the maximum beep time is one sec-
ond. You can set the time greater than one (1) second, but it will only beep
for one second.
Note that in order to use this command, the beeper must be enabled. See the
next command.
:STATe <b>

0 or OFF Disable beeper
Query :STATe? Query state of beeper
Description This command is used to enable or disable the beeper. When enabled, a
short beep is provided to signal that a front panel key has been pressed.
