Operating the Power Supply Remotely 4
Series N5700 User’s Guide 61
Parameter Types
Data programmed or queried from the power supply is ASCII. The
data may be numerical or character string.
Numeric Parameters
Symbol Response Formats
<NR1> Digits with an implied decimal point assumed at the right of the
least-significant digit. Examples: 273
<NR2> Digits with an explicit decimal point. Example: .0273
<NR3> Digits with an explicit decimal point and an exponent. Example:
2.73E+2
Parameter Formats
<NRf> Extended format that includes <NR1>, <NR2> and <NR3>.
Examples: 273 273. 2.73E2
<NRf+> Expanded decimal format that includes <NRf> and MIN
MAX. Examples: 273 273. 2.73E2 MAX.
MIN and MAX are the minimum and maximum limit values that
are implicit in the range specification for the parameter.
<Bool> Boolean Data. Example: 0 | 1 or ON | OFF
<SPD> String program data. String parameters enclosed in single or
double quotes.
Suffixes and Multipliers
Class Suffix Unit Unit with Multiplier
Current A ampere MA (milliampere)
Amplitude V volt MV (millivolt)
Time S second MS (millisecond)
Common Multipliers
1E3 K kilo
1E-3 M milli
1E-6 U micro
Response Data Types
Symbol Response Formats
<CRD> Character Response Data. Permits the return of character
strings.
<AARD> Arbitrary ASCII Response Data. Permits the return of
undelimited 7-bit ASCII. This data type has an implied message
terminator.
<SRD> String Response Data. Returns string parameters enclosed in
double quotes.
