Formats for Returned Values: ASCII Format and Binary Format
ASCII Format (FORMat ASCII)
The command reads out a list of comma separated values (CSV) of the measured val-
ues in floating point format.
Reading out data in binary format is quicker than in ASCII format. Thus, binary format
is recommended for large amounts of data.
Binary Format (FORMat REAL,32)
The command reads out binary data (Definite Length Block Data according to IEEE
488.2), each measurement value being formatted in 32 Bit IEEE 754 Floating-Point-
Format.
Depending on the number of samples to be transferred, 2 different kinds of syntax are
used:
