Description
  • This command (no query form) selects one or more tests of the current test list. Tests can be selected by the keyword ALL, by ‘subsystem’, by ‘area’, or by ‘test’. The selection by ‘area’ requires ‘subsystem’ and a ‘test’ requires both the ‘subsystem’ and ‘area’. This command requires that ACTIVE:MODE is set to DIAGnostic. If not, the following error is generated: -300,’Device-specific error; Not in Diagnostics mode - diag:sel ‘’Channel1’‘’ If in the proper active of DIAGnostic, then an invalid string generates the following error: -220,’Parameter error; Invalid subsystem - diag:sel ‘’Channel2’‘’
Usage
  • Using the .write(value) method will send the DIAGnostic:SELect value command.
SCPI Syntax 
- DIAGnostic:SELect {ALL|<path>}
Properties
  • .verify: The DIAGnostic:SELect:VERify command.

verify_ property 

verify_: DiagnosticSelectVerify

Return the DIAGnostic:SELect:VERify command.

Description
  • This command returns selection status of one specific test. A specific test requires the ‘subsystem’, ‘area’, and ‘test’. This is context sensitive and is dependent on the type as set with the command DIAGNOSTIC:TYPE.
Usage
  • Using the .query(argument) method will send the DIAGnostic:SELect:VERify? argument query.
  • Using the .verify(argument, value) method will send the DIAGnostic:SELect:VERify? argument query and raise an AssertionError if the returned value does not match value.
SCPI Syntax 
- DIAGnostic:SELect:VERify? <subsystem>,<area>,<test>

DiagnosticSelectVerify

Bases: SCPICmdReadWithArguments

The DIAGnostic:SELect:VERify command.
