EPM2000/EPM2000e Reference Guide
40
ASCII+
A commonly used form of data transmission, most easily readable. Data is indicated using scientific
notation and units are included. For example,
0.687E+00V.
When multiple values are transmitted (such as statistical data), the values are separated by a comma.
To avoid confusion, data headers should be utilized when transmitting multiple values (see
Programming -- Commands -- Statistics Send). An example of multiple values with headers is:
AVG=0.950E+00V,DEV=0.001E+00V.
