Query Syntax

:RDCA:CONNect:USB:SADDress?

Query Response

Returns the USB address selected for connecting to a DCA-X. For example,

usb0[10893::31489::MY58400986::0]

Description

Sets or queries the current USB device address that is used when making a Flex-on-Flex connection. When you connect the USB cable, FlexDCA automatically discovers a DCA-X and stores this address. To actually establish the Flex-on-Flex connection, confirm or set the address with this command, select USB with the :RDCA:CONNect:METHod command, and then make the connection using the :RDCA:CONNect command.

Requires FlexDCA revision A.06.40 and above.
