ACQuire:NUMSAMples
Description
This command sets or queries the minimum number of acquired sam-
ples that make up a waveform database (WfmDB) waveform for single
sequence mode and Mask Pass/Fail Completion Test. This is equivalent
to setting the Waverform Database Samples in the Acquisition Mode
side menu.

Acquisition
Syntax 1
ACQuire:NUMSAMples {<NR1>}
Syntax 2
ACQuire:NUMSAMples?
Arguments
H NR1
This is the minimum number of acquired samples that make up a wa-
veform database (WfmDB) waveform for single sequence mode and
Mask Pass/Fail Completion Test. The default value is 16,000 samples.
The range is 5,000 to 2,147,400,000 samples.
In real time mode, if the entire trace is displayed, one triggered ac-
quisition should acquire 5000 samples for a record length of 5000. If
you want 5001 samples, the instrument will need to make two acquisi-
tions (10,000 samples). If you request fewer samples than the record
length, the number of samples will be the same as the record length.
Example 1
ACQuire:NUMSAMples 5000
This command specifies that 5000 samples will be acquired in WfmDB
mode for single sequence mode and Mask Pass/Fail Completion Test.
Example 2
ACQuire:NUMSAMples?
This command might return
:ACQUIRE:NUMSAMples 10000
indicating that there are 10,000 samples to be acquired in WfmDB
mode for single sequence and Mask Pass/Fail Completion Test.
