Description
SCPI ID
SCPI ID determines the manufacturer and model number returned by identification query (*IDN? command). The serial
number and version information are unaffected. Use this setting to avoid changing existing test system code where
the manufacturer or model number are verified and to maximize backwards compatibility with the Keysight 34970A
and 34972A. The default settings return "Keysight Technologies" followed by the model number "DAQ970A". For more
information, see the *IDN? and SYSTem:PERSona Subsystem commands in the Keysight DAQ970A/DAQ973A
Programming Guide.
Important : In order to update the instrument firmware from remote, the model number in the *IDN? response must
match the actual instrument model number. If you have changed the instrument's *IDN? response to another
instrument, when attempting to update the firmware from remote, you will see this error: The instrument is not
supported by this firmware file. To update the firmware, either update using the front panel procedure or, from remote,
use SYSTem:PERSona:MODel to set the *IDN? to match the actual model number, update the firmware, and then use
SYSTem:PERSona:MODel again to set the *IDN? response to the other model number.
