Terminator

You can use one of the following as the terminator.

• CR + LF (or

0x0d 0x0a in base 16 ASCII code. )

• LF (or

0x0a in base 16 ASCII code.)

Note

• Commands must be kept within 2047 bytes from the first character to the terminator.
• Except for user-specified strings, commands are not case-sensitive.
• Even if a command enumerated with other commands experiences and error, the other

commands are all executed.

Response

The instrument receives a single response (affirmative or negative) for every command
delimited with a terminator.* Please maintain a 1-to-1 command-response ratio on the
controller side as well. If this command-response format is not upheld, correct operation
cannot be guaranteed. For the format of responses, see section 2.1.

* There are exceptions with RS-422A/485 specific commands (see section 2.1).
