I—Indicates a button which pops up a selection list with input
translation. That is, the values read are translated before they are
compared to the selection list options.
L—Indicates a button which pops up a selection list without any
translation. The output value is the number of the selected option.
T—Indicates a button which pops up a selection list with output
translation. The number of the option selected is used as an index into
the translation table to generate an output string.
N—Indicates a button which only sends the subsequent command to
the instrument. No user-prompting happens.
The following string through an optional ‘|’ or the end of the line is the
command which is to be sent to the instrument upon the completion of the
button selection. The command string should normally contain print-style
formatting to include the user input. If a ‘|’ is present, it indicates a
command which is sent to the instrument upon successful completion of
the button command to update the value field.
Some examples ('\n' is the C syntax for an end-of-line character):
'Concentrations\n'
This is a single text-only line.
'\n'
This is a single blank line.
'
NO:3s\n'
This is a line which appears slightly indented. The text field is 'NO', the
value is taken from the third element of the data response, and interpreted
as a string.
' NO:18sBd.ddd;set no coef %s\n'
This is a line which also appears slightly indented. The next field is also
'NO', but the value is taken from the eighteenth element of the data
response, again interpreted as a string. A button appears on this line which,
when pressed, pops up an input dialog which will state "Please enter a new
value for NO using a d.ddd format." The string entered by the user is used
to construct the output command. If the user enters, for example, '1.234',
the constructed command will be 'set no coef 1.234'.
