GPIB Command Reference
Query response
Query response
The section titled “Query response” shows the format of the data that are read out when the
command can enable Query (i.e., data readout).
The parameters read out are enclosed within braces ({ }). If the pair of braces contains
items separated by vertical strokes (|), this indicates that only one of them will be read out.
If two or more parameters are to be read out, they are separated by commas (,). Two
periods (..) inserted between commas indicate that the data are omitted. For example,
"{numeric 1},..,{numeric 4}" indicates that the four items {numeric 1},{numeric
2},{numeric 3},{numeric 4} will be read out.
<newline><^END> appended to the parameter field is the program message terminator.
