Difference between ASCII data commands Get Result, Get Value, and Get Decision

Question

What is the difference between the ASCII data commands Get Result, Get Value, and Get Decision?

Answer

The examples of the Get Decision, Get Value and Get Result commands are shown below with the help of Putty.

"Decision, <measurementID1>, <measurementID2>,.." - Get Decision

"Value, <measurementID1>, <measurementID2>,.." - Get Value

"Result, <measurementID1>, <measurementID2>,.." - Get Result

measurementID is measurement ID of the Gocator tool in question and "," is the command delimiter. 

In the above example, measurement IDs 0, 1, & 8 are valid - all have a decision value of 0 and a measurement value of 9.261, 5.307 & 1.156 mm.

If a measurement ID exists but the value is INVALID - you will see the following 

If a measurement ID does not exist - you will see the following.
