ializes the waveform data parameters to their factory defaults.
DATa:COMPosition

Syntax
DATa:COMPosition {COMPOSITE_YT|COMP OSITE_ENV|SINGU LAR_YT}
DATa:COMPosition?
Arguments
COMPOSITE_YT is of native width 8-bits and is written as 8-bit data in ISF fi les
and REF waveforms. The data can be queried as 1- or 2-byte data in CURVe?
queries by setting the data width to 1 or 2.
COMPOSITE_ENV is min/max pair data. Its native width is 8-bits and is written as
8-bit data in ISF files and REF waveforms. The data can be queried as 1- or 2-
byte data in CURVe? queries by setting the data width to 1 or 2.
SINGULAR_YT is 16-bit data which originates as averaged acquired data or math
data. It is written to ISF files and REF waveforms as 16-bit data. The data can be
queried as 1- or 2- byte data in CURVe? queries by setting the data width to 1 or 2.
Examples
DATA:COMPOSITION? might return :DATA:COMPOSITION SINGULAR_YT
indicating that the data type returned by the CURVe? query is singular waveform.
DATA:COMPOSITIONCOMPOSITE _YT sets the return data type of CURVe?query
as composite waveform.
DATa:COMPosition:AVAILable? (Query Only)
Lists the waveform data types that are available for return from the instrument
under the current instrument settings.
