4.34 WAVeform Group
The commands in this group deal with the acquired waveform data. There are no top menu items that correspond to
the commands in this group.
:WAVeform:END
Function Sets or queries the end data point in the
waveform specified by the :WAVeform:TRACe
command (the main waveform).
Syntax
:WAVeform:END {<NRf>}
:WAVeform:END?
<NRf> = 0 to 100000000
Example
:WAVEFORM:END 10000
:WAVEFORM:END?
-> :WAVEFORM:END 10000
Description You can query the total number of data
points that have been acquired by using the
:WAVEform:LENGth? command.
:WAVeform:FORMat
Function Sets or queries the transmission data format.
Syntax
:WAVeform:FORMat {ASCii|BYTE|WORD|
DWORd}
:WAVeform:FORMat?
Example
:WAVEFORM:FORMAT ASCII
:WAVEFORM:FORMAT?
-> :WAVEFORM:FORMAT ASCII
Description The DWORd format becomes effective on a
CAN bus monitor module, a CAN & LIN monitor
module, a CAN/CAN FD monitor module, or a
SENT monitor module when the bit length of the
transmitted data is greater than 17.
:WAVeform:LENGth?
Function Queries the total number of data points in the
waveform specified by the :WAVeform:TRACe
command (the main waveform).
Syntax
:WAVeform:LENGth?
Example
:WAVEFORM:LENGTH?
-> :WAVEFORM:LENGTH 10010
Description The total number of data points varies depending
on the instrument’s settings.
For details, see appendix 1, “Relationship
between the Time Scale, Record Length, and
Sample Rate” in the DL350 Getting Started
Guide.
:WAVeform?
Function Queries all waveform data output settings.
Syntax
:WAVeform?
:WAVeform:BITS?
Function Queries the bit length of the waveform data
specified by the :WAVeform:TRACe command.
Syntax
:WAVeform:BITS?
Example
:WAVEFORM:BITS? -> :WAVEFORM:BITS 16
Description This is not the effective bit length of the A/D.
This command returns the number of bits that a
single source trace data value uses.
:WAVeform:BYTeorder
Function Sets or queries the transmission byte order for
data formats that are 2 bytes or longer.
Syntax
:WAVeform:BYTeorder {LSBFirst|
MSBFirst}
:WAVeform:BYTeorder?
Example
:WAVEFORM:BYTEORDER LSBFIRST
:WAVEFORM:BYTEORDER?
-> :WAVEFORM:BYTEORDER LSBFIRST
Description This command is only valid in the :WAVeform
group.
:WAVeform:DATaselect
Function Queries whether to query the waveform specified
by the :WAVeform:TRACe command using ACQ
data or PP data.
Syntax
:WAVeform:DATaselect {ACQData|
PPData}
:WAVeform:DATaselect?
Example
:WAVEFORM:DATASELECT ACQDATA
:WAVEFORM:DATASELECT?
-> :WAVEFORM:DATASELECT ACQDATA
