Read
The character string (optional) defined in Command is sent to the
instrument and the answer is expected and evaluated within the Time-
out
defined in the instrument settings.
Write
The character string defined in Command is sent to the instrument.
Wait for
The character string (optional) defined in Command is sent to the
instrument and a waiting period ensues that is as long as it takes for a
received character string to correspond to the regular expression in
Comparison. If this does not take place within the Timeout defined
in the command, the command will be canceled.
Poll

Timeout defined in the command, the command will be canceled.
