GPIB Command Statements
The suppression of the EOI sequence is frequently necessary to prevent a premature
termination of the data input. When not specified, the typical EOI termination occurs
when an ASCII LF (line feed) is received. However the LF bit pattern could coincidentally
occur randomly in a long string of binary data, where it might cause a false termination.
Also the bit patterns for the ASCII CR (carriage return), comma, or semicolon might cause
a false termination. Suppression of the EOI causes the computer to accept all bit patterns
as data, not commands, and relies on the GPIB EOI (end or identify) line for correct
end-of-data termination.
