[3:0]
WO
Parameter
4
Data specifies the parameter to retrieve:
0x00 = Current RF Freq (7 valid bytes return)
0x01 = Sweep Start Freq (7 valid bytes return)
0x02 = Sweep Stop Freq (7 valid bytes return)
0x03 = Sweep Step Freq (7 valid bytes return)
0x04 = Sweep Dwell Time (4 valid bytes return)
0x05 = Sweep Cycle Count (4 valid bytes return)
0x06 = Sweep List Buffer Pts (4 valid bytes return)
0x07 = Current RF Phase (4 valid bytes return*)
0x08 = Current RF Level (4 valid bytes return*)
0x09 = Current attenuator value (1 valid bytes)
0x0A = Current level DAC value (2 valid bytes)
(*) is 4 bytes of a float format number, for
example:
float phase=*(float*)&read_in_unsigned_int

The data is returned in unsigned integer form of
flatten float type. To recast the unsigned integer
back to float use:
float temp = *(float*)&read_in_unsigned_int_var
