6.9 FORMat Subsystem
The FORMat subsystem specifies the data format of the data transmitted from and to the instrument.
FORMat[:DATA]
ASCii | REAL | UINT [, 8 | 32]
This command specifies the data format for the data transmitted from the instrument to the control PC.
The format settings are valid for the binary transmission of trace data (see also
Example:
"FORM REAL,32"
"FORM ASC"
"FORM UINT,8"
Characteristics:
*RST value: ASCii
SCPI: conform
Mode:
R, A
The data format is either ASCII or one of the formats REAL. ASCII data are transmitted in plain text,
separated by commas. REAL data are transmitted as 32-bit IEEE 754 floating-point numbers in the
"definite length block format".
The FORMat command is valid for the transmission of trace data and the results of the bar graph
measurement. The data format of trace data received by the instrument is automatically recognized,
regardless of the format which is programmed.
FORMat:DEXPort:DSEParator
POINt | COMMA
This command defines which decimal separator (decimal point or comma) is to be used for outputting
measurement data to the file in ASCII format. Different languages of evaluation programs (e.g.
Microsoft Excel) can thus be supported.
Example:
"FORM:DEXP:DSEP POIN
'Sets the decimal point as separator.
Characteristics:
*RST value: -- (factory setting is POINt; *RST does not affect setting)
SCPI: device-specific
Mode:
R, A
Incorrect format setting will result in numerical conversion, which may lead to
incorrect results.
