tspnet.write() 
This function writes a string to the remote instrument. 
Usage 
tspnet.write(connectionID, "inputString") 
 
The connection ID returned from tspnet.connect() 
 
Details 
The tspnet.write() function sends inputString to the remote instrument. It does not wait for 
command completion on the remote instrument. 
The Series 3700A sends inputString to the remote instrument exactly as indicated. The 
inputString must contain any necessary new lines, termination, or other syntax elements needed 
to complete properly. 
Because tspnet.write() does not process output from the remote instrument, do not send 
commands that generate too much output without processing the output. This command can stop 
executing if there is too much unprocessed output from previous commands. 
 
Example 
 
tspnet.write(myID, "runscript()\r\n") 
Commands the remote instrument to execute 
a command or script named runscript() 
on a remote device identified in the system 
as myID.
