Reading/Writing Measurement Data
Data Transfer Format
7. Reading/Writing
Measurement Data
ASCII Transfer Format
When you select the ASCII transfer format as the data transfer format, numbers are
transferred as ASCII bytes, each of which corresponds to one of the formats shown below.
Note that numbers are separated from one another with a comma (,) in accordance with the
IEEE 488.2 specification.
NOTE Numeric data strings vary in length. Keep this in mind when you extract some data from
retrieved numeric data strings in your program.
• Integer format
Figure 7-1 shows this format. Numbers are expressed as integers. For example, 201 is
expressed as “+201” or “201.”
Figure 7-1 Integer format
• Floating-point number format
Figure 7-2 shows this format. Numbers are expressed with floating points. For
example, 1000 is expressed as “+1.00000000000+003”.
