SAVE WAVETXT path Saves, in the absolute path, a wave file, containing the parame-
ters of the front panel of the last computed waveform. The waveform saved corresponds to the
current state of the controls, it is the last action performed of a request. BEWARE: a relative
path will crash the Dazzler program (behaviour present in V560b).
SWB n The value of Save to data buffer (in the combination area) is set to n, then the save
button is “pressed”.
WAV n The current display mode of the generator is modified:
n=0 → mem.A, n=1 → mem.B, n=2 → alternate A/B.
A & B are not symmetrical: when B or A/B are selected, (aux) may force a switch to A.
6.2.6 Wave file inclusion in request (#wave)
The remote protocol has been simplified to operate with a single request file holding all the
information, so that an additional wavefile is not required. This uses a line equal to ”#wave”
after the star commands from the wave information. When such #wave keyword is found, all
the remaining of the request file is considered to be the content of the wave file, potentially
including #amp and #phase subsections (see section 5.4).
The use of the #wave keyword is mutually exclusive with the specification of a wave file path
as first line of the request. If both are included, behavior is unpredictable and unsupported.
Remote text protocol using a single file:
request.txt
which
combines setting the *commands and some of the controls found in
a wave file. The control lines typically modify a few variables after
initial loading of a more complex wave file. The controls are
separated by the line #wave.
The *commands are partially processed first, followed by the wave
controls. Processing order is command & control dependent. To
force processing order: submit separate requests.
The “LOAD” button is only “pressed” at the end.
