FORMat[:DATA]:STATus ASCii | INTeger, [8] | 16 | 32
Description
Specifies the format of the status information when transfering the measured values from
the instrument. Status information is an integer number.
This command applies to averaged measurements and memory recordings of averaged
data. If <length> is not specified, the instrument uses last valid setting.
This command is coupled with FORMat[:DATA]. Change from ASCii (text) format to
REAL | INTeger (binary) format or vice versa using either FORMat[:DATA] or
FORMat[:DATA]:STATus will change both, the measurement data and status
information formats. These formats are always either both text or both binary. Last valid
length is used for indirectly changed format.
Parameter(s)
ASCii
The status information is transferred as integer value formatted into a string. Multiple
status information values are separated by comma. Length is not valid for ASCii format
of status information.
INTeger,[8]|16|32
Status information value is transferred as binary integer of specified length. INTeger
status information values are in big-endian byte order. For default length of 8 bits the
length can be omitted.
