Example:
DATA LIST-17: #d0d1...dx...d127}
16 bytes containing 128 data bits, first bit is the MS bit of the first
byte.
Usage: Setting only
{DATE: yyyy-mm-dd;hh:mm:ss}
(optional)
The tag contains the date and time at which the file was created. The year must be
expressed as four digits. The instrument does not analyze this tag.
Example:
{DATE: 2009-04-02;14:32:12}
BB:ARB:WAV:TAG? 'DATE'
queries the content of the DATE tag of the selected waveform
file.
Response: '2009-04-02;14:32:12'
the waveform was created on April 2, 2009 at 14 hrs 32 min
Usage: Setting only
{EMPTYTAG-Length: #EmptySequence}
(mandatory in automatically generated one and multi-segment waveforms)
This tag is empty, i.e. contains no data, and is used as placeholder.
Setting parameters:
Length An ASCII integer value that specifies the number of bytes in the
EMPTYTAG, i.e. defines the number of bytes from the colon : to
the end brace }
Note: If you change the content of a waveform file, change also
the {EMPTYTAG-Length} value. For example, if you add a tag
or add bytes to a tag, reduce the length by the number of newly
introduced bytes.
EmptySequence An empty sequence containing blanks only. The number of used
blanks is calculated as the difference between the hex
addresses of the {WAVEFORM} tag and the hash sign # in the
{EMPTYTAG}.
The {WAVEFORM} tag always starts at hex address #4000.
