[:SEGMent]:COMBined
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:COMBined <combined_list> defines in one step
both the output voltage and marker pulse lists that constitute a waveform segment.
Parameters The <combined_list> may be either a comma-separated list of values or an
IEEE-488.2 definite or indefinite length block containing the values in 16-bit integer
format. Each value has the following format:
Bits 15–3 Bit 2 Bit 1 Bit 0
DAC code unused marker reserved
The DAC code is a 13-bit two’s complement or unsigned number (see the
[SOURce:]ARBitrary:DAC:FORMat command). With
[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPLitude] 5.11875 V set and a matched
output load, the least significant bit (LSB) represents 1.25 mV. If the marker bit is 1, a
marker pulse will be output with this point if the marker bit in the segment sequence
memory location generating this segment is also a 1.
MINimum and MAXimum cannot be used with this command.
Comments • If the comma-separated list of values format is used, the values must be in two’s
complement format, i.e., values should range from -32768 to +32767. If block
format is used, the most significant byte of each value must be sent first.
• The combined list must be at least four points long but no longer than the reserved
length specified by
[SOURce:]LIST[1][:SEGMent]:DEFine. If the combined list
length is less than the reserved length, only the number of points specified by the
combined list is generated when outputting the waveform segment.
• Executing the query form of this command with voltage point and marker pulse
lists defined with different lengths generates Error -221,"Settings conflict" unless
the marker pulse list has a length of 1.
• Using combined lists is faster than separately defining the voltage point and
marker pulse lists.
