Reading Out Measured Result
Reading Out Measured Result
The program of Example 6-2 is detailed below.
Lines 50 to 60
Line 70
Lines 90 to 100
Lines 120 to 130
Lines 170 to 210
Lines 220 to 250
Line 270
NOTE
Binary data must be read out without formatting. Therefore, use an I/O path (@Binary) set
up for such readout. This is also applicable to Line 290.

Sets the GPIB address.
Sets the data transfer format to the binary format.
Turns ON the trigger system continuous startup and sets the trigger
mode to the GPIB trigger.
Reads out the ON/OFF state of the comparator function and assigns it
to the Comp_flag variable.
After the trigger system state transitions to the trigger wait state,
triggers the instrument.
Reads out the header part.
If the Comp_flag value is 1 (the comparator function is ON), reads out
the measurement status, measured primary parameter result, measured
secondary parameter result, and comparator sorting result.
If the Comp_flag value is not 1 (the comparator function is OFF),
reads out the measurement status, measured primary parameter result,
and measured secondary parameter result.
Reads out the message terminator at the end of the data.
Displays the measurement status, measured primary parameter result,
and measured secondary parameter result.
If the Comp_flag value is 1 (the comparator function is ON), displays
the comparator sorting result.
If the Comp_flag value is not 1 (the comparator function is OFF),
displays "Comparator : OFF."
