Waveform
CURVe { <Block> | <asc curve> }
CURVe?
<Block> is the waveform data in binary format. The waveform is
formatted as: #<x><yyy><data> where <x> is the number of
characters in <yyy>. For example, if <yyy> = 500, then <x> = 3,
where <yyy> is the number of bytes to transfer. Refer to Block
Arguments on page 2-12 for more information.
If width is 1, then all bytes on the bus are single data points. If width
is 2, then all bytes on the bus are 2-byte pairs. Use the DATa:WIDth
command to set the width. <data> is the curve data.
<asc curve> is the waveform data in ASCII format. The format for
ASCII data is <NR1>[,<NR1>...] where each <NR1> represents a
data point.
