ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Block Format
DEF9:
Uses the IEEE 488.2 definite length arbitrary block response data
format. The digit 9 indicates that the byte count consists of 9 digits.
The data block directly follows the byte count field.
For example, a data block consisting of three data bytes would be
sent as:
WF DAT1,#9000000003
where
A
transmission has ended.
The same data bytes as above would be sent as:
WF DAT1,#0

: The format OFF does not conform to the IEEE 488.2
standard and is only provided for special applications where
the absolute minimum of data transfer may be important.
Data Type
BYTE:
Transmits the waveform data as 8-bit signed integers (one byte).
WORD:
Transmits the waveform data as 16-bit signed integers (two bytes).
