Details
This command checks to see if any output data is available from the device. No data is read from the
instrument. This allows TSP scripts to continue to run without waiting on a remote command to finish.
Example
ID = tspnet.connect("192.0.2.1")
tspnet.write(ID, "*idn?\r\n")
repeat bytes = tspnet.readavailable(ID) until bytes > 0
print(tspnet.read(ID))
tspnet.disconnect(ID)
Send commands that will create data.
Wait for data to be available.
