Arguments
ASCIi species
the ASCII representation of signed INT, FLOAT. If ASCII is
the value, then :BN_Fmt and :BYT_Or are ignored.
FAStest speci
es that the data be sent in the fa stest possible manner
consistent with maintaining accuracy and is interpreted with respect to the
rst waveform specied in the DATA:SOUrce list.
:ENCdg will always be BIN, :BYT_Or will always be LSB, but :BN_Fmt and
:BYT_Nr will depend on the rst DATa:SOUrce waveform. :BN_Fmt will
be RI unless the waveform is internally stored as a oating point number, in
which case the FP format will be used.
RIBinary species signed integer data point representation with the most
signicant byte transferred rst.
When :BYT_Nr is 1, the range is from -128 through 127. When :BYT_Nr
is 2, the range is from -32,768 through 32,767. When :BYT_Nr is 8, then
the waveform being queried has been set to Fast Acquisition mode. Center
screen
is 0 (zero). The upper limit is one division above the top of the screen
and the lower limit is one division below the bottom of the screen. This is
the default argument.
RPBinary species the positive integer data-point representation, with the
most signicant byte transferred rst.
When :BYT_Nr is 1, the range from 0 through 255. When :BYT_Nr is 2, the
range is from 0 to 65,535. When :BYT_Nr is 8 , then the waveform being
queried has been set to Fast Acquisition mode. The center of the screen is
127. The upper limit is one division a bove the top of the screen and the lower
limit is one division below the bottom of the screen.
FPBinary species the oating point (width = 4) data.
The range is from –3.4 × 10
38
to 3.4 × 10
38
. The center of the screen is 0. The
upper limit is one division above the top of the screen and the lower limit is
one division below the bottom of the screen.
The
FPBinary argument is only a pplicable to math waveforms or ref
waveforms saved from math waveforms.
SRIbinary is the same as RIBinary except that the byte order is swapped,
meaning that the least signicant byte is transferred rst. This format is useful
when transferring data to IBM compatible PCs.
SRPbinary is the same as RPBinary except that the byte order is swapped,
meaning that the least signicant byte is transferred rst. This format is useful
when transferring data to PCs.
SFPbinary species oating point data in IBM PC format. The SFPbinary
argument only works on math w aveforms or ref waveforms saved from math
waveforms.
