RELATED COMMANDS
IND0: Uses the IEEE 488.2 indefinite length arbitrary block
response data format.
A <NL^END> (new line with EOI) signifies that block
transmission has ended.
The same data bytes as above would be sent as:
WF DAT 1,#0<DABxDABxDABxNL^END>
OFF: Same as IND0. In addition, the data block type identi-
fier and the leading #0 of the indefinite length block will
be suppressed. The data presented above would be sent
as:
WF <DAB><DABxDABxNL^END>
Note: The format OFF does not conform to the IEEE 488.2 stan-
dard and is only provided for special applications where the
absolute minimum of data transfer may be important.
DATA TYPE
BYTE: Transmits the waveform data as 8-bit signed integers
(1 byte).
WORD:
Transmits the waveform data as 16-bit signed integers
(2 bytes).
Note: The data type BYTE transmits only the high order bits of the
internal 16-bit representation. The precision contained in the low
order bits is lost.
ENCODING
BIN:
Binary encoding (GPIB only)
HEX: Hexadecimal encoding (bytes are convened to 2 hexa-
decimal ASCII digits (0 .... 9, A .... F))
