[:SOURce<hw>]:BB:ARBitrary:WAVeform:DATA <Filename>, <Data>
[:SOURce<hw>]:BB:ARBitrary:WAVeform:DATA? <Tag>
The setting command writes the binary block data <data> to the file identified by
<filename>. The complete content of the waveform file (i.e. including all tags) must
be specified; the complete content is transmitted as binary data block.
I/Q data and the marker data can also be written to a file with the command :
MMEMory:DATA:UNPRotected.
Tip: To ensure trouble-free data transmission, set the GPIB delimiter to EOI.
The query command retrieves the content of the specified tag of the currently selected
waveform file or the waveform file specified with the <filename>.
See also Chapter 5.7.5, "Tags for Waveforms, Data and Control Lists", on page 327.
