LIST:SHAPe
This command sets the sequence of the waveform shape entries. The order in
which the shapes are given determines the sequence in which the list of shape will
be output when a list is triggered. Changing list data while a subsystem is in list
mode generates an implied ABORt. The following shapes may be specified:
– SINusoid: A sine wave is output
– SQUare: A square wave is output
– CSINusoid: The output is a clipped sine wave. Both positive and negative peak
amplitudes are clipped at a value determined by the FUNCtion:CSINusoid
command.
– <table>: The output shape is described by one of the user-defined waveform
tables.
The maximum peak voltage that the ac source can output is 425 V
peak
. This
includes any combination of voltage, voltage offset, and function shape values.
Therefore, the maximum value that can be programmed depends on the
peak-to-rms ratio of the selected waveform. For a sine wave, the maximum
voltage that can be programmed is 300 V
rms
.
LIST:SHAPe:POINts?
This query returns the number of points specified in LIST:SHAP. Note that it
returns only the total number of points, not the point values.
