MODES AVAILABLE: CONTROLLER, DEVICE
EXAMPLES:
++eoi 1 Enable EOI assertion with last character
++eoi 0 Disable EOI assertion
++eoi Query if EOI assertion is enabled or disabled
8.5. eos
This command specifies GPIB termination characters. When data from host is received
over USB, all non-escaped LF, CR and ESC characters are removed and GPIB
terminators, as specified by this command, are appended before sending the data to
instruments. This command does not affect data from instruments received over GPIB
port.
If the command is issued with no arguments then the current configuration is returned.
SYNTAX: ++eos [0|1|2|3] where: 0 – CR+LF, 1 – CR, 2 – LF, 3 – None
MODES AVAILABLE: CONTROLLER, DEVICE
EXAMPLES:
++eos 0 Append CR+LF to instrument commands
++eos 1 Append CR to instrument commands
++eos 2 Append LF to instrument commands
++eos 3 Do not append anything to instrument commands
++eos Query current EOS state
8.6. eot_enable
This command enables or disables the appending of a user specified character (see
eot_char) to USB output whenever EOI is detected while reading a character from the
GPIB port.
If the command is issued without any argument, the current state of eot_enable is
returned.
SYNTAX: eot_enable [0|1]
MODES AVAILABLE: CONTROLLER, DEVICE
EXAMPLES:
++eot_enable 1 Append user defined character when EOI detected
++eot_enable 0 Do not append character when EOI detected
++eot_enable Query current eot_enable state
