Hi Jim,
attached the readings from two instruments including 'E' (both are connected to GPIB and on at the same time).
_read are after reset, end_always are with sending "END ALWAYS" (EOI line set true when the last byte of each reading sent).

Ciao, Micha

Hi Micha,  Everyone,

Thank you for running this.   Would you do another run, I would like to see what happens with a response including the letter 'E'.  A command that returns a voltage would likely do.  On my HP3478A a 's' returns the front panel value it may work on your meters.

Thanks
Jim
