Ieee 32-Bit Floating Point Binary Transfer Format; 32-Bit Floating Point Data - Agilent Technologies E5071C Manual

E5071C
When you select the IEEE 32-bit floating point binary transfer format as
the data transfer format, numbers are transferred in the format shown in
the figure below.

IEEE 32-bit floating point binary transfer format

This data transfer format uses a header that consists of a sharp character
(#), a number of 6 (which indicates the byte size of the <number of bytes
transferred> part), and the <number of bytes transferred> part in this
order. The header is followed by the binary data (each number consists of
4 bytes and the total is the byte size indicated by <number of bytes
transferred>) and the message terminator <new line>^END.
The binary data is expressed in the IEEE 754 32-bit floating-point number
format shown in the figure below.
