Sending Queries to the Logic Analysis System

Sending Queries to the Logic Analysis System

This program example contains the steps required to send a query to the logic analysis system. Sending the query alone only puts the requested information in an output buffer of the logic analysis system. You must follow the query with an ENTER statement to transfer the query response to the controller. When the query response is sent to the logic analysis system, the query is properly terminated in the logic analyzer. If you send the query but fail to send an ENTER statement, the logic analysis system will display the error message "Query Interrupted" when it receives the next command from the controller and the query response is lost.
