[: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 is transmitted as a binary
data block.
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 Chapter 7.4, "Waveform and List Format", on page 511.
By default, the waveform files are saved in the default directory of the instrument
(/var/user/Lists).
To access waveform files located in another directory, the complete file path and file
name are required.
Parameters:
<Filename> string
Specifies the name of the waveform file the binary data will be
copied to.
The file extension (.wv) may be omitted.
Setting parameters:
<Data> block data
Contents of the waveform file as a definite length binary block.
Query parameters:
<Tag> 'comment' | 'copyright' | 'date' | 'lacpfilter' | 'marker name' |
'poweroffset'
Indentifier of the tag which shall be retrieved from the waveform
file.
Example: Setting
BB:ARB:WAV:DATA "/var/user/temp/test1", <bin
data block>
writes the block data to file test1.wv in
the /var/user/temp/ directory.
