The source file has to be available in the default directory (see

Refer to
Chapter 13.5.2, "Accessing files in the default or in a specified directory"
on page 662 for general information on file handling in the default and a specific direc-
tory.

<Data>
Sends the data to the currently selected control list. If the list already contains data, it is
overwritten
. This command only writes data into the data section of the file.
The values for the control signals are sent, arranged in an 8-bit value as defined in
.

The data can also be sent as a binary block, each binary block being a 2-byte value in
which the 16 bits represent the binary values (16-bit unsigned integer, 2 bytes, LSB
first).
When binary data transmission is in use, use the com-
mand
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB:LTERminator EOI
to set the termination
character mode to ‘EOI control data message only’ so that a random
LF
in the data
sequence is not interpreted as
End
, thereby prematurely terminating the data transmis-
sion. The command
...LTER STAN
resets the mode.
According to the specifications, the byte sequence is defined as 'most significant byte
first'.
Tip:
Control lists are created in binary format. You may however need the control list in
an ASCII format, e.g for creating a waveform file with R&S
WinIQSIM2. Refer to the
Chapter 4.6.4.7, "How to create a control list using tag file format"
on page 173 for description on how to create a control list file in ASCII format manually.
