Hallöchen!
Sorry for the late response, but the subject didn't catch my

That looks pretty cool. I'll try it out.
thanks

Actually that's probably the easiest way. I may want to use shorter
variable names :)

That's perverse.
Really.

Ok, I figured it out...
The only way to get the flags is as a float, either through an ascii
string or a true float. The value of the float, however, is
representable as 24 bits of normal binary.
So for example, the value returned is +4.608400E+04
which is really an int, 46084, which is more eas
Hi,
okay, let me be more concise. The lab equipment has two formatting
modes, ascii, and float.
In ascii mode, it returns strings that represent the numeric value, so
e.g. 3.14 is returned as '3.14'. PyVisa, when set to read ascii mode,
will convert these strings to float with "visa.read_values
