Responses
When the controller sends a query with a question
mark, the instrument returns a response in the
following format: data
Example
:SOURce:FUNCtion? <RMT> ->
:SOURCE:FUNCTION VOLTAGE
If You Want the 2558A to Return Responses
without Headers
You can configure the 2558A so that even responses
that have both headers and data are returned without
headers. Use the
COMMunicate:HEADer
command
for this purpose.
Abbreviated Form
The 2558A normally returns response headers with
the lower-case section removed. You can configure
the 2558A 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.
