3. Known Issues

Buffer overflow errors can occur if data is not read from the instrument's memory buffer fast enough.
This issue can be resolved by increasing the delay time between each command in order to reduce the measurement speed.

When a series of commands are sent to the instrument, it must add a LF to be a judgement for message terminator.
As for query command, the return message of the instrument is also added a LF for PC to judge message terminator.

Delay measurement functions not supported yet.

Two examples added: the functions includes Auto-measurement datalog, Read. CSV File which is saved by oscilloscope, and Fetch display snapshoot
