The unit connected to the instrument (typically a personal computer) acts as a MASTER and is the only
unit that can start a process of communication.
The process of communication must be made by the transmission of a string by the MASTER, followed
by a reply from the SLAVE concerned.
CONTROLS FORMAT DESCRIPTION:
The double quotes enclose constant characters (observe upper and lower case); the <and> symbols
contain variable numeric fields.
