Instrument Control Toolbox

Default Property Values

If you do not explicitly define a value for a property, then the default value is used. All configurable properties have default values.

Note    Default values are provided for all instrument object properties. For serial port objects, the default values are provided by your operating system. For GPIB and VISA instrument objects, the default values are provided by vendor-supplied tools. However, these settings are overridden by your MATLAB code, and will have no effect on your instrument control application.

If a property has a finite set of string values, then the default value is enclosed by {} (curly braces). For example, the default value for the EOSMode property is none.

• set(g,'EOSMode')
  [ {none} | read | write | read&write ]
  

You can also use the propinfo function, or refer to Property Reference to find the default value for any property.
