Write both strings and binary data to a TCP/IP object?

Hello,

Is it possible to write both strings and binary data to a TCP/IP object? I know you can write strings using fprintf and binary data using fwrite. Is it possible to do both (ie, something like one column with variable names and the next column with numeric values)?

Thank you,

Kevin

I think it's different for writing to a file vs. writing to a TCP/IP object. For example, the fprintf command works differently when writing to a file vs. when writing a TCP/IP object

I don't have the instrument control toolbox, nor wouldn't I know how to use it. But just from looking at the documentation:

 obj = tcpip('rhost');
 s = 'Lookee, Ima string';
 d = pi();

 string_to_pass = [s ' ' num2str(d)];
 fprintf(obj,string_to_pass)

Which might be totally idiotic, but your question seems to reduce to how can I put number and strings together. That was answered in the question you asked before.
