6 Root (:) Commands
:BLANk
(see page 1138)
Command Syntax
:BLANk [<source>]
<source> ::= {CHANnel<n> | FUNCtion | MATH | SBUS{1 | 2} | WMEMory<r>}
for the DSO models
<source> ::= {CHANnel<n> | DIGital<d> | POD{1 | 2}
| BUS{1 | 2} | FUNCtion | MATH | SBUS{1 | 2} | WMEMory<r>}
for the MSO models
<n> ::= 1 to (# analog channels) in NR1 format
<d> ::= 0 to (# digital channels - 1) in NR1 format
<r> ::= 1 to (# ref waveforms) in NR1 format
The :BLANk command turns off (stops displaying) the specified channel,
digital pod, math function, or serial decode bus. The :BLANk command
with no parameter turns off all sources.

To turn on (start displaying) a channel, etc., use the :VIEW command. The DISPlay
commands, :CHANnel<n>:DISPlay, :FUNCtion:DISPlay, :POD<n>:DISPlay,
:DIGital<n>:DISPlay, :SBUS<n>:DISPlay, or :WMEMory<r>:DISPlay, are the preferred
method to turn on/off a channel, etc.
MATH is an alias for FUNCtion.
