gpib communication without Ascii commands

Is there anyway to send hexidecimal commands to equipment on the Dasy lab national instruments GPIB module ie ibwrt (user, 'hex') or does this always have to be a string. Am i using the correct ib command or should i be using ibcmd (user,'hex')

I have found that you can write every Hex number apart from 00 using \x does any one know of a way to send 0 on the national instrument Dasylab GPIB driver.
ibwrt (user,'\x00') doesnt work but for example ibwrt (user'\xff') does work.

You probably have figured this out yourself but does this link help at all?
