Creating and Downloading Waveform Files
Commands for Downloading and Extracting Waveform Data
To get a file, type:
get /user/waveform/<file_name1> <file_name>
where <file_name1> is the file to download from the signal generator’s
/user/waveform/ directory and <file_name> is the name designator for
the local PC/UNIX.
— If a marker file is associated with the data file, use the following
command to download it to the local PC/UNIX directory:
get /user/markers/<file_name1> <marker file_name>
where <marker file_name1> is the name of the marker file to
download from the signal generator’s /user/markers/ directory
and <marker file_name> is the name of the file to be downloaded
to the local PC/UNIX.
For more examples of get command usage refer to Table 5-12.
