HIStogram:DISplay {OFF|LOG|LINEAr}
HIStogram:DISplay?
Related Commands
HIStogram:MODe, HIStogram:STATE
Arguments
<OFF> disables the histogram display but allows histogram data to accumulate.
This argument provides for backward compatibility with older DPO Series
instruments; it does not affect a change in the display scaling of the histogram.
When queried, HIStogram:DISplay? will return
OFF if the histogram state or mode
has been disabled using the HIStogram:MODe or HIStogram:STATE commands.
<LOG> sets the histogram display to logarithmic scaling.
<LINEAr> sets the histogram display to linear scaling. This is the default setting.
Examples
HISTOGRAM:DISPLAY LOG sets the h istogram scaling to be the log count of
each histogram bin.
HISTOGRAM:DISPLAY? might return :HISTOGRAM:DISPLAY LOG indicating
that the current histogram display scaling i s the log count of each histogra
mbin.
HIStogram:FUNCtion
This command either selects the type of histogram to create or returns the current
histogram type. This command is equivalent to selecting Waveform Histogram
from the Measure menu and then choosing either Horizontal or Vertical from the
Histogram Mode group box.
