WFMOutpre:BYT_Nr
Description
This command sets or returns the binary field data width for the wave-
form specified by the DATa:SOUrce command. Note that values will be
constrained according to the underlying waveform data. This specifica-
tion is only meaningful when WFMOutpre:ENCdg is set to BIN, and
WFMOutpre:BN_Fmt is set to either RI or RP.

Syntax 1
WFMOutpre:BYT_Nr <NR1>
Syntax 2
WFMOutpre:BYT_Nr?
Argument
H <NR1>
This is the number of bytes per data point and can be 1, 2, 4 or 8. A
value of 1 or 2 bytes per waveform point indicates channel data; 4
bytes per waveform point indicate math data; 8 bytes per waveform
point indicate pixel map (DPO) data.
Example 1
WFMOutpre:BYT_Nr?
This query might return
:WFMOUTPRE:BYT_NR 2
indicating that there are 2 bytes per outgoing waveform data point.
Example 2
WFMOutpre:BYT_Nr 1
This command sets the number of bytes per outgoing waveform data
point to 1, which is the default setting.
