Overview

This section describes the data types that the E5052B uses for data transfer.

Array Type

If you use any of the following commands, the data transfer will be executed using array-type data. Here, you can choose from among ASCII transfer format, IEEE 64-bit floating point binary transfer format, and IEEE 32-bit floating point binary transfer format.

Block Type

If you use any of the following commands, the data transfer will be executed using block-type data. Here, you can choose either IEEE 64-bit floating point binary transfer format or IEEE 32-bit floating point binary transfer format.

• :MMEM:DATA

• The instrument always uses the ASCII transfer format when you transfer data without using array- or block-type commands.
