MCS260B
CORNERSTONE 260B MONOCHROMATORS
47
Send : WAVE?[cr][lf]
Response: WAVE?[cr][lf]500.01[cr][lf]00[cr][lf]
Example (RS-232, echo off, handshake on):
Send : WAVE?[cr][lf]
Response: 500.01[cr][lf]00[cr][lf]
For queries received on the USB port, the CS260B sends only the query response. The query
response can be read back by itself.
Example (USB):
Send : WAVE?[cr][lf]
Response: 500.01[cr][lf]
Discussion
In general, Handshake and Echo are most useful when troubleshooting an RS-232 connection.
Otherwise they require an application to collect a significant amount of unused information.
Also, when first getting familiar with the command set, it is useful to send the “system:error?” query
after each Statement to make sure the spelling and paramete
r types are correct: see the “Error
Codes” section in this appendix.
