Instrument Control Toolbox

Specifying Property Names

Instrument object property names are presented using mixed case. While this makes property names easier to read, you can use any case you want when specifying property names. Additionally, you need use only enough letters to identify the property name uniquely, so you can abbreviate most property names. For example, you can configure the EOSMode property any of these ways.

• set(g,'EOSMode','read')
  set(g,'eosmode','read')
  set(g,'EOSM','read')
  

However, when you include property names in an M-file, you should use the full property name. This practice can prevent problems with future releases of the Instrument Control Toolbox if a shortened name is no longer unique because of the addition of new properties.
