Note
 
With the exception of binary formats 7 and 8, all other formats 
include a leading space
 in each datum delivered in each stream 
packet.
 
 
The number of stream packets (‘num’) parameter is a positive integer count (from 
0 to 2147483647, specified with 1 to 10 numeric digits as needed).  It sets a finite 
limit on the number of packets delivered in the host data stream.  The value 0 for 
this parameter requests “continuous” output packets for the defined host stream 
(unbounded).   
 
Note
 
While the ‘c 00’ command will allow hardware and software trigger 
scan lists to operate concurrently, this is not a recommended mode 
of operation.  Running hardware and software trigger scan lists 
concurrently diminishes the degree of determinism for the hardware 
scan lists.  The hardware trigger lists will determine the frequency of 
pressure readings and the update of internal pressure, current value 
table.  The software trigger lists will return data from this table at the 
requested software trigger rate, however the table will only be 
updated at the rate of the fastest hardware trigger scan lists.
