Hi veerv,

If you are looking for ways to send 'theta' to your instrument i suggest you look for the code for 'theta' that your instrument understands (which should be a number). 

Here's a link from where you can find the codes for theta.

There are ways to display unicode characters on your front panel but i guess this is not what you want.

Hope this helps.
