Numerical Data Formats

The numerical data format of 62000H DC Power Supply is listed in Table 5-6.
Symbol
NR1 It is a digit without decimal point. The decimal is
assumed to be at the right of the least significant digit.
NR2 It is a digit with a decimal point.
NR3 It is a digit with a decimal point and an exponent.
NRf Flexible decimal format including NR1or NR2 or NR3.
NRf+ Extended decimal format including NRf and MIN, MAX.
MIN and MAX is the high and low limit of parameter.
5.3.3

Boolean Data Format

The Boolean parameter <Boolean> uses the form ON|OFF only.
5.3.4

Character Data Format

The character strings returned by query command are shown in either of the following forms:
<CRD> Character Response Data: character string with maximum length of 12.
<SRD> String Response Data: character string.
Table 5-5
> Items in angle brackets are parameter abbreviations.
| Vertical bar separates alternative parameters.
] Items in square brackets are optional. For example,
OUTP [ : STATe] means that : STATe may be omitted.
} Braces indicate the parameters that may be repeated.
The notation <A> {<, B>} means that parameter "A" must be
entered while parameter "B" may be omitted or entered once or
more times.
