Querying Multiple Fields With Single OUTPUT/ENTER

When multiple queries are combined into one command string the Test Set responds by sending one response message containing individual response message units separated by a response message unit separator (;).

Example of Multiple Queries Combined Into One Command String

OUTPUT 714;"CALLP:RECA:NAWC?;SER?;EXT?;SCM?;MIN?"

OUTPUT 714;"CALLP:DATA ’RECCW A’"

ENTER 714;Message$

PRINT Message$

Printed Test Set Response Message

"010";"1";"1";"1110";"110111100101101111010101"

In order to read individual response message units into individual string variables combined into one ENTER statement the programming language used must recognize the response message unit separator (;) as an entry terminator for each string in the input list. If the programming language used cannot recognize the response message unit separator (;) as an entry terminator then the response message must be read into one string and individual responses parsed out.
