Upon
power-up,
or
after receiving a OCL, SOC,
or
JOX
command
sets the
instrument
to
YO
( <CR><LF>
).
By
using
theY
command,
you
can
program
the
number
and
type
of
terminator char-
acters
the
instrument
sends
at
the
end
of
its
data
string. Available terminator charac-
ters
are
the
commonly
used
CR (carriage return, ASCII 13)
and
LF (line feed, ASCII
10) characters. These terminators
are
recognized
by
most
controllers. Selecting
the
wrong
terminator for
the
controller
could
cause
the
bus
to
hang.
You also
have
the
option
of
selecting
that
no
terminators
be
sent
(a
common
choice
for a binary
output
data
format).
OUTPUT 716; ''Y1X"
OUTPUT 716;

! Terminate
on
LF CR.
