    The RS232 interface does not support flow control. The programmer should be aware of this limitation and pay attention to the Instrument command process time. If the remote commands are sent too fast the internal buffer may overrun and cause communication errors. Therefore, it is mandatory to add a delay between commands so that the Instrument has sufficient time to process.
