Transferring Waveform
Data to the Oscilloscope
You can transfe
r waveforms to the oscilloscope from an external controller using
the following sequence:
1. Specify the reference waveform using DATa:DESTination.
2. Specify the record length of the reference waveform using WFMPre:NR_Pt.
3. Specify the waveform data format using WFMInpre:ENCdg.
4. Specify the number of bytes per d ata point using WFMInpre:BYT_Nr.
5. Specify first data point i
n the waveform record using DATa:STARt.
6. Transfer waveform preamble information using WFMInpre.
7. Transfer waveform data to the oscilloscope using CURVe.
Table 2-34: Waveform Transfer Commands
Command
Description
CURVe The command format transfers waveform
data to the oscilloscope (reference waveform
specified by DATa:DESTination)
The query format transfers waveform
data from oscilloscope specified by the
DATa:SOUrce command
DATa
Sets the format and location of the waveform
data that is transferred with the CURVe
Command
Or returns the format and location of the
waveform data that is transferred with the
CURVe? command
DATa:COMPosition Sets or returns the type of data that the
CURVe? query returns
DATa:COMPosition:AVAILable? Lists the waveform data types that are
available for return from the instrument under
the current instrument settings
DATa:DESTination Sets or returns the reference waveform
for storing waveform data sent to the
oscilloscope
DATa:ENCdg Sets or returns the format of outgoing
waveform data
DATa:RESOlution Sets or returns whether the CURVE query
returns full resolution records (acquired
data) or reduced resolution records
(filtered/displayed data).
DATa:SOUrce Sets or returns the location of waveform data
transferred from the oscilloscope
DATa:STARt Sets or returns the starting point in waveform
transfer
