The values of the selected curves at the same sample point are transferred as a group 
in the order of the above table, separated by the chosen delimiter character and 
terminated with the selected terminator. This continues until all the points have been 
transferred. 
NOTE: When transferring the Frequency curve, which is saved when bit 15 in the 
CBD parameter is asserted, the instrument automatically reads the data for each 
stored point in both frequency curves (i.e. the lower and upper 16 bits) and sends it 
as a single data point.
