7 :ACQuire Commands
:ACQuire:SEGMented:COUNt
(see page 1138)
Command Syntax
:ACQuire:SEGMented:COUNt <count>
<count> ::= an integer from 2 to 1000 (w/4M memory) in NR1 format
The :ACQuire:SEGMented:COUNt command sets the number of memory
segments to acquire.
The segmented memory acquisition mode is enabled with the
:ACQuire:MODE command, and data is acquired using the :DIGitize,
:SINGle, or :RUN commands. The number of memory segments in the
current acquisition is returned by the :WAVeform:SEGMented:COUNt?
query.
The maximum number of segments may be limited by the memory depth
of your oscilloscope. For example, an oscilloscope with 1M memory allows
a maximum of 250 segments.
