Description Sets the field size (in base 10) used in connection with the GETA, GETR, PUTA, and
PUTR commands. If a negative size is specified, then values given (or returned) are sign
extended to 32 bits. For example, if SIZE = -16 and a 16 bit field containing FFFF hex is
fetched, then the value FFFFFFFF hex is returned. The SIZE? query returns the current
setting of SIZE in base 10. SIZE is preset to 16 each time the generator is powered on.
Note: This command is used only with custom applications and command files created by
Quantum Data.
