Measured/Computed Data and FIFO Data
• The FD command is used to output the measured/computed data.
• The FF command is used to output the FIFO data.
• You can use the CB command to specify whether to output the data of measurement
channels set to skip and computation or external input channels set to OFF.
• The ID number of the output format is 1. See “ID” in section 4.1.
