DATA and SETup Commands

SYSTem:DATA

<block data> <block length specifier><section>...

<block length #8<length> specifier

<length> the total length of all sections in byte format (must be represented with 8 digits)

<section> <section header><section data>

<section 16 bytes, described on the following page header>

<section data> format depends on the type of data

The total length of a section is 16 (for the section header) plus the length of the section data. So when calculating the value for <length>, don’t forget to include the length of the section headers.

Query:SYSTem:DATA?

The SYSTem:DATA query sends block data to the controller. The data sent by the SYSTem:DATA query reflect the configuration of the machines when the last run was performed. Any changes made since then through either front-panel operations or programming commands do not affect the stored configuration. The format of the block data depends on the current setting of the DBLock parameter.

Returned Format [:SYSTem:DATA] <block data><NL>
