Programming example - program and read register set
The command sequence in Table 14-8 programs and reads the measurement register set.
Registers are read using the binary format (which directly indicates which bits are set). The
command to select format (FORMat:SREGister) is documented in Table 14-2.

Note
Parameters:
<NDN> = #Bxx…x Binary format (each x = 1 or 0)
= #Hx Hexadecimal format (x = 0 to FFFF)
= #Qx Octal format (x = 0 to 177777)
