:MMEMory:DATA <Filename>, <BinaryBlock>
:MMEMory:DATA? <Filename>
The setting command writes the block data <BinaryBlock> to the file identified by
<Filename>.
Tip: Use this command to read/transfer stored instrument settings or waveforms
directly from/to the instrument.
Parameters:
<BinaryBlock> #<number><length_entry><data>
#: Hash sign; always comes first in the binary block
<number>: the first digit indicates how many digits the subse-
quent length entry has
<length_entry>: indicates the number of subsequent bytes
<data>: binary block data for the specified length.
For files with a size with more than nine digits (gigabytes), the
instrument allows the syntax #(<Length>), where <Length>
is the file size in decimal format.
Parameters for setting and query:
<Filename> string
String parameter to specify the name of the file.
Example:
MMEMory:DATA '/var/user/test.txt',#15hallo
Writes the block data to the file test.txt.
The digit 1 indicates a length entry of one digit; the digit 5 indi-
cate a length of the binary data (hallo) in bytes.
MMEMory:DATA? '/var/user/test.txt'
Sends the data of the file test.txt from the instrument to the
controller in the form of a binary block.
