Commands Listed in Alphabetical Order
Arguments
<file p ath> is a
quoted string that defines the file name and path. If the file
path is within the current working directory, you need only specify the file name.
<data> can be e
ither DEFINITE LENGTH or INDEFINITE LENGTH
ARBITRARY BLOCK PROGRAM DATA encoding as described in IEEE 488.2.
Examples
FILESYSTEM:WRITEFILE "C:\SomeNewFile.txt",#221 1.23 2.54 8.22
-1.22<EOI>
creates a file named “SomeNewFile.txt” on the root of the C drive,
containing the string of 21 characters “ 1.23 2.54 8.22 -1.22”. This is an example
of using the definite length arbitrary block.
FILESYSTEM:WRITEFILE "C:\SomeNewFile.txt" ,#0 This is a
test<NL+EOI>
creates a file named “SomeNewFile.txt” on the root of the C
drive, containing the string “This is a test.” This is an example of using the
indefinite length arbitrary block. The newline character (0x0a) is required.
FILESYSTEM:WRITEFILE "C:\SomeNewFile.txt",#221 1.23 2.54 8.22
-1.22<NL+EOI>
creates a file named “SomeNewFile.txt” on the root of the C
drive, containing the string of 21 characters “ 1.23 2.54 8.22 -1.22”. Because the
data argument is indefinite format arbitrary block program data, it may contain
any 8-bit values, including newline characters (hexadecimal 0a). The fact that
newline characters are allowed makes this command deviate from the stricte
st
interpretation of t he IEEE488.2 specification.
HARDCopy
This command sends a copy of the screen display to the port specified by
HARDCopy:PORT. This command is equivalent to pressing the PRINT button
on the front panel. When printing to a file, the file format is Windows Bitmap
Image (BMP).
The HARDCopy query returns the port and fi le path.
