SCPI Data Types
The SCPI language defines different data formats for use in program messages
and response messages. Instruments are flexible listeners and can accept
commands and parameters in various formats. However, SCPI instruments are
precise talkers. This means that SCPI instruments always respond to a
particular query in a predefined, rigid format.
<boolean> Definition
Throughout this document <boolean> is used to represent ON|OFF|<NRf>.
boolean parameters have a value of 0 or 1 and are unitless. ON corresponds to
1 and OFF corresponds to 0.
On input, an <NRf> is rounded to an integer. A nonzero result is interpreted as
1.
Queries always return a 1 or 0, never ON or OFF.
<character_data> Definition
Throughout this document <character_data> is used to represent character
data, that is, A -Z, a -z, 0 -9 and _ (underscore). For example: START and
