This example finds the maximum amplitudes of several signals ac-
quired one after another. ARM starts a new data acquisition. The
WAIT command ensures that the maximum is evaluated for the
newly acquired waveform.
"C1 :PAVA? MAX" instructs the instrument to evaluate the maxi-
mum data value in the Channel 1 waveform.
