Returns Trace 1 data as a list of x,y pairs. The y-values are in the current Y Axis Unit of the instrument. The
x-axis values are the values of the trace, in the x-axis scale units of the trace (Hz for frequency domain
traces, seconds for time domain traces)
When querying trace data, it is best if the instrument is not sweeping during the query. Therefore, select
Single Sweep, or Update=OFF when querying trace data from the instrument
2 Returns Trace 2 data as a series of x,y pairs
3 Returns Trace 3 data as a series of x,y pairs
4 Returns Trace 4 data as a series of x,y pairs
5 Returns Trace 5 data as a series of x,y pairs
6 Returns Trace 6 data as a series of x,y pairs
7 Returns Peak Table data as a series of x,y pairs. If the Delta to Limit column is on it returns it as a series of
x,y,delta triplets. If a cell is showing --- it is returned as NaN. The data is returned in the current sort
order as displayed in the Peak Table
If a query of Peak Table results is requested and the Peak Table is not on, an error event is generated,
“Settings Conflict; Pk Table must be on to query Pk Table results”
8 Returns Marker Table data as a series of comma separated values. The marker table returns comma
separated values in the following form:
<Marker Number>,<Marker Trace>,<X>,<Y>,<Marker Function Width>,<Marker Function
Value>
Only markers that are enabled are included. If the Marker function is OFF, then Marker Width and Marker
Function Value are returned as NaN (“Not a Number”, 9.91e+37). The data is returned in the current sort
order as displayed in the Marker Table
If a Marker Table results query is requested and the Marker Table is not on, an error event is generated,
“Settings Conflict; Mkr Table must be on to query Mkr Table results”
9 Returns Spectrogram data as a series of comma separated values. The spectrogram table returns comma
separated values in the following form:
<Slice 0>,<Time of Slice 0>,<Slice 0 X[0]>,<Slice 0 Y[0]>, <Slice 0 X
[1]>,<Slice 0 Y[1]>,…, <Slice 0 X[N]>,<Slice 0 Y[N]>,<Slice 1>,<Time of Slice
