Response
When the controller sends a message unit that has
a question mark in its program header (a query), this
instrument returns a response message to the query.
This instrument returns response messages in one of
the following two forms.
• Response Consisting of a Header and Data
Responses that can be used as program messages
without any changes are returned with command
headers attached.
Example
:INTEGrate:MODE?<PMT> ->
:INTEGRATE:MODE NORMAL<RMT>
• Response Consisting Only of Data
Responses that cannot be used as program
messages unless changes are made (query-only
commands) are returned without headers. However,
there are query-only commands whose responses
this instrument will attach headers to.
Example
INTEGrate:STATe?<PMT> ->
RESET<RMT>
If You Want this instrument to Return
Responses without Headers
You can configure this instrument so that
even responses that have both headers and
data are returned without headers. Use the
COMMunicate:HEADer
command for this purpose.
Abbreviated Form
This instrument normally returns response headers with
the lower-case section removed. You can configure this
instrument so that full headers are returned. Use the
COMMunicate:VERBose
command for this purpose.
The sections enclosed in square brackets ([ ]) are also
omitted in the abbreviated form.
