HIStogram:DISplay

This command sets the scaling of the histogram data display to be the

count of each histogram bin or the log of that count. The default scaling

is Linear.

The query form of this command returns either the histogram display

scaling or the display status ”disabled.”

Measure menu, and then selecting Linear or Log in the Histogram Scal-

ing group.

Arguments

H <OFF>

Disables the histogram display but allows histogram data to accumu-

late.

Note: This argument provides for backward compatibility with older

TDS Series instruments; it does not affect a change in the display

scaling of the histogram. When queried, HIStogram:DISplay? will

return OFF if the histogram state or mode has been disabled using the

HIStogram:MODe or HIStogram:STATE commands.

H <LOG>

Sets the histogram display to logarithmic scaling.

H <LINEAr>

Sets the histogram display to linear scaling. This is the default setting.

Example 1

HIStogram:DISplay LOG

This command sets the histogram scaling to be the log count of each

histogram bin.
