Constructed Mnemonics
Some header mnemonics specify one of a range of mnemonics. For example, a
channel mnemonic can be either CH1, CH2, CH3,orCH4. You use these mnemon-
ics in the command just as you do any other mnemonic. For example, there is a
CH1:VOLts command, and there is also a CH2:VOLts command. In the command
descriptions, this list of choices is abbreviated as CH<x>.
When cursors are displayed, commands may specify which cursor of the pair to
use.
Symbol Meaning
POSITION<x> A cursor selector; <x> is either 1 or 2.
Commands can specify which measurement to set or query as a mnemonic in the
header. Up to four automated measurements may be displayed with each
displayed waveform. The displayed measurements are specified in this way:
Symbol Meaning
MEAS<x> A measurement specifier; <x> is either 1 [top], 2, 3,or
4[bottom].
Commands specify the channel to use as a mnemonic in the header.
Symbol Meaning
CH<x> A channel specifier; <x> is either 1, 2, 3,or4.
Commands can specify the reference waveform to use as a mnemonic in the
header.
