Tektronix DSA70000/B Series Programmer's Manual

Commands Listed in Alphabetical Order
Examples
If one sets the d
ata format to binary with a
TRIGGER: A:SERIAL:DATA:FORMAT
command, as follows: TRIGger:A:SERIAL:DATA:FORMAT BIN then the
following query:
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:DATA:PATTE RN:S8B10B? might return
the following characters:
1101XXXX10 :
If one next sets the data format to hexadecimal with the
TRIGGER:A:SERIAL:DATA:FOR MAT commands as follows:
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:DATA:FOR MAT HEX then the following query:
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:DATA:PAT TERN:S8B10B? might return the following
character
s:
3?? Showing, in this case, 3 followed by two “?”. Each hex
character has replaced four binary characters. The hex “??” has replaced the
binary ”01XXXX10”. The “?” was used because "01XX” and “XX10” don’t have
an exact hex representations.
If one sends:
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:DATA:PATTE RN:S8B10B “XXXX XXXa”
this will set the pattern to eight hex digits. The space in the middle only serves to
make the pattern easier to read.
Now, if one sends the following query:
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:DATA:PAT TERN:S8B10B? this might return: XXXXXXXA
showing the effect of the pattern sent in example 3. The cosmetic space from
examp
le 3 is not returned.
Finally, one could change the data format back to binary with
the
T
RIGGER:A:SERIAL:DATA:FORMA T
command, as follows:
TRIGGER:A:SERIAL:DATA:FOR MAT BIN then one could
query the instrument using the pattern command, as follows:
TRIGGER:A:SERIAL:DATA:PAT TERN:S8B10B? This could return:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXX1010 showing the response due to the
binary format. Four binary characters “
1010” now replace the hex character “A”.
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:LOCKLen
This command sets or queries the length in bits of the repeating bit pattern for
pattern lock trigger.
Group
Low Speed Serial Trigger
Syntax
TRIGger:A:SERIAL:LOCKLen <NR1>
TRIGger:A:
SERIAL:LOCKLen?
Arguments
<NR1> specifies the length in bits. The valid values are 1 to 2147483647.
Examples
TRIGGER:A:SERIAL:LOCKLEN2 640 sets the repeating bit pattern length to
2640 bits.
