Message 

Terminators

This instrument recognizes the following message terminators:

From the instrument's interface settings, the following can be selected as the ter-
minator for response messages.

See 

 "  Selecting the Interface" (p.105).

Separators

(1) Message Unit Separator

Multiple message can be written in one line by separating them with semicolons

";".

• When messages are combined in this way and if one command contains an

error, all subsequent messages up to the next terminator will be ignored.

• A query error occurs if a query command is combined with an immediately fol

-

lowing semicolon and subsequent command.

(2) Header Separator

In a message consisting of both a header and data, the header is separated from

the data by a space " ".

(3) Data Separator

In a message containing multiple data items, commas are required to separate

the data items from one another.

• LF

• CR+LF

• EOI 

• LF with EOI

• CR

• CR+LF

• CR+LF

• LF with EOI
