The TERM? query allows the programmer to determine which program message
terminator is currently selected. <CR> (carriage return), <CR><NL> (new line),
<CR><^END> (EOI), <CR><NL><^END>, <NL><^END>, <NL>, and <^END> are
allowed.
Parameters
None.
Response
where the response data is:
0 - <CR><NL><^END>
4 - <NL><^END>
1 - <CR><NL>
5 - <NL>
2 - <CR><^END>
6 - <^END>
3 - <CR>
Notes
<CR><NL><^END> (0) is the default type. Use of any terminator, other than number 4,
removes the OMM-6810B from strict compliance with the IEEE-488.2 standard.
Although the <CR> is recognized as a <white space> by the IEEE-488.2 specification, it
is used as a possible terminator in order to be compatible with GPIB products which do
not meet the IEEE-488.2 standard.
Example
“TERM?” - response: 0, means the selected program message terminator is the
<CR><NL><^END> characters, in that order.
