Furthermore, the following can be selected as the response message
terminator with the "TRANsmit:TERMinator" command:
1. LF
2. CR
3. CR and LF
The initial selection are three.
For details on the "TRANsmit:TERMinator" command, refer to section 11.4,
"Command Reference."
(1) Message unit separator
A semicolon ";" is used as a message unit separator when it is desired to set
out several messages on a single line.
":SCALe:PT 2;:SCALe:CT 4;:AVERaging 10"
(2) Header separator
In a message which has a header and data, a space (represented by " "(space)
in the examples) is used as the header separator to separate the header from
the data.
":VOLTage:AUTO ON" (actually, " " is not displayed.)
(3) Data separator
If a message has several data items, commas are required as data separators
for separating these data items from one another.
":INTEgrate:DATAout:ITEM 7,63,3"
