ROUTe:CHANnel:LABel:CLEar:MODule

34980A

ROUTe:CHANnel:LABel:CLEar:MODule

Syntax

ROUTe:CHANnel:LABel:CLEar:MODule {<slot>|ALL}

Description

This command clears all user-defined labels on all channels in the specified slot, or on all modules installed in the 34980A, and restores the factory-default labels to the front panel and Web Interface. Clearing labels using this command also clears Analog Bus relay labels in the specified slot.

User-defined channel labels are available for identification purposes only and cannot be used in place of a channel number within a command string.

Used With:

  • All 34980A Modules

Parameters

Name

Type

Range of Values

Default Value

<slot>

Discrete

{1-8|SLOT1-SLOT8|ALL}

This is a required parameter

Remarks

  • This command does not clear the factory-default channel labels from the front panel (e.g., "MUX CH BANK 1", "MATRIX1 ROW3 COL4", etc.) or Web Interface (e.g., "1001", "3020"). The factory-default labels are always preserved.

  • To clear user-defined labels on an individual channel or range of channels (and reassign the factory-default labels), specify a null string for the <label> parameter in the ROUTe:CHANnel:LABel[:DEFine] command. However, note that since the Analog Bus relays are ignored if they are included in a range of channels, you must list these channels individually as shown below:

        ROUT:CHAN:LAB "",(@1001:1020,1911,1912,1913,1914)

  • The instrument keeps a record of what module types are installed in each slot. If a different module type is detected in a specific slot at power on, all user-defined channel labels for that slot are discarded. If an empty slot is detected at power-on, any previously-defined labels for that slot are preserved and will be restored if the same module type is installed later; however, if a module of a different type is installed in that slot, the previously-defined labels will be discarded.

  • All user-defined channel labels are stored in non-volatile memory, and do not change when power has been off, after a Factory Reset (*RST command), after an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command), or after a stored state is recalled (*RCL command).

Examples

The following command clears all user-defined channel labels on the module in slot 1. The factory-default labels are assigned to all channels on the module in slot 1.

ROUT:CHAN:LAB:CLEAR:MOD 1   or   ROUT:CHAN:LAB:CLEAR:MOD SLOT1

The following command clears all user-defined labels on all modules installed in the 34980A. The factory-default labels are assigned to all channels on all installed modules.

ROUT:CHAN:LAB:CLEAR:MOD ALL
