8.1 DISPlay:TYPE 
8.2 DISPlay:WBRightness 
data[94]-data[102] (9 digits): Display trigger time of current frame. 
data[103]-data[111] (9 digits): The current frame displays the start point of the data 
acquisition start time point.  
data[112]-data[127] (16digits): Reserved bit. 
This command is issued again before this data is read to analyze the waveform data 
data[x] as follows: 
data[0]-data[1] (2 digits): #9 
data[2]-data[10] (9 digits): Indicates the byte length of the current data packet. 
data[11]-data[19] (9 digits): the total length of bytes representing the amount of data, 
data[20]-data[28] (9 digits): Indicates the byte length of the uploaded data. 
data[29]-data[x]: indicates the waveform data corresponding to the current data 
header. 
:DISPlay:TYPE <type> 
:DISPlay:TYPE? 
Sets or queries how waveforms are displayed on the screen.  
:<type> ::= < VECTors| DOTS> 
▷ VECTors: Displayed by connecting lines between sampling points. This mode 
provides the most realistic waveform in most cases. Easily view the steep edges of a 
waveform, such as a square wave.  
▷ DOTS: Display sampling points directly. You can see each sampling point visually 
and use the cursor to measure the X and Y values of that point. 
The query returns VECT or DOTS. 
:DISPlay:TYPE DOTS /*Selection point display method*/  
:DISPlay:TYPE? /*The query returns DOTS*/ 
:DISPlay:WBRightness <value> 
:DISPlay:WBRightness? 
Set or query the brightness of the waveform display on the screen.  
:<value> ::= one number of 0 to 100  
The query returns an integer  
:DISPlay:WBRightness 50 /*Set the waveform brightness to 50%*/  
:DISPlay:WBRightness? /*The query returns 50*/
