The development of application programs requires an understanding of the operation of the amplifier as well
as the intended application.
An application program on the computer/controller should issue only one character string (command or
query) at a time. After each functional command is issued, the amplifier’s status should be checked to ensure
that the command has been properly executed. The application program should allow sufficient time for the
function to be completed before checking the status.
The application program should facilitate the checking of the status just prior to issuing a command, since the
status could have been changed by a fault condition or by operator actions.
Variables represented by wild card characters i.e. x, y, z etc. do not indicate or delimit the number of
characters actually specified.
