Commands Listed in Alphabetical Order

<x> is the numbe

r of y bytes. For e xample, if <yyy>=500, then <x>=3)

<yyy> is the number of bytes to transfer. If width is 1, then all bytes on the

bus are single

data points. If width is 2, then all bytes on the bus are 2-bytes

wide. Use the WFMInpre:BYT_Nr command t o set the width for waveforms

transferred into the oscilloscope. Use WFMOutpre:BYT_Nr to set the width

for waveforms transferred out from the oscilloscope.

<data> is the curve data.

<newline> is a single byte new line character at the end of the data.

<asc cu rve

is the w aveform data in ASCII format. The format for ASCII data

<NR1>[,<NR1>...], where each <NR1> represents a data point.

DIGital S

ends the data to the speciﬁed reference waveform slot, as speciﬁed

by the DATA:DESTINATION command. If the data encoding is a binary

format, then depending upon the setting of HEADER, the binary block header is

prepended to the output data. (MSO models only)

Examples

CURVE? with ASCII encoding, start and stop of 1 and 10 respectively, and a width

set to 1 might return

:CURVE 61 ,62,61,60,60,-5 9,-59,-58,-58,-59

NOTE. Curve data is transferred from the oscilloscope asynchronously, depending

on the length of the curve record. Such transfers may require several seconds

to complete. During this period, the oscilloscope will not respond to the user

controls. You can interrupt these asynchronous data transfers by sending a device

clear message to the oscilloscope or b y interrupting the query with another

command or query. In order to verify that curve data has been completely

transferred, it is recommended that you follow such queries with an *ESR?

query to verify there a re no error bits set. You can also check the event queue to

determine the cause of the error. If the error was caused by an interrupted query,

then the asynchronous data transfer was not complete when the *ESR? query was

sent. In such cases, it may be necessary to increase the program’s time-out value

to ensure that all data is transferred and read.

DATa

Sets or returns the format and location of waveform data transferred with the

CURVe? query or CURVe command.
