Usage: Query only
Asynchronous command
REFCurve<rc>:DATA[:VALues]?
[<Offset>[,<Length>]]
Returns the data of the channel waveform points for transmission from the instrument
to the controlling computer. The data can be used in MATLAB, for example.
Without parameters, the complete waveform is retrieved. Using the offset and length
parameters, data can be retrieved in smaller portions, which makes the command
faster. If you send only one parameter, it is interpreted as offset, and the data is
retrieved from offset to the end of the waveform.
To set the export format, use FORMat[:DATA] on page 483.
Suffix:
<rc>
.
1...4, index of the reference waveform
Query parameters:
<Offset> Number of offset waveform points to be skipped.
Range: 0 to m. Limit: n + m <= record length
<Length> Number of waveform points to be retrieved.
Range: 1 to n. Limit: n + m <= record length
Return values:
<Data> List of values according to the format and content settings.
Usage: Query only
Asynchronous command
17.11 Data management
Some of the commands in the following chapter are asynchronous. An overlapping or
asynchronous command does not automatically finish executing before the next com-
mand starts executing. If overlapping commands must be executed in a defined order,
e.g. to avoid wrong measurement results, they must be serviced sequentially.
