Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 5
• Chapter 24, “:SBUS<n> Commands,” starting on page 453, describes
commands that control oscilloscope functions associated with the serial
decode bus.
• Chapter 25, “:SEARch Commands,” starting on page 557, describes
commands that control oscilloscope functions associated with searching
for waveform events.
• Chapter 26, “:SYSTem Commands,” starting on page 615, describes
commands that control basic system functions of the oscilloscope.
• Chapter 27, “:TIMebase Commands,” starting on page 629, describes
commands that control all horizontal sweep functions.
• Chapter 28, “:TRIGger Commands,” starting on page 641, describes
commands that control the trigger modes and parameters for each
trigger type.
• Chapter 29, “:WAVeform Commands,” starting on page 707, describes
commands that provide access to waveform data.
• Chapter 30, “:WGEN Commands,” starting on page 743, describes
commands that control waveform generator (Option WGN) functions and
parameters.
• Chapter 31, “:WMEMory<r> Commands,” starting on page 759, describes
commands that control reference waveforms.
• Chapter 32, “Obsolete and Discontinued Commands,” starting on page
769, describes obsolete commands which still work but have been
replaced by newer commands and discontinued commands which are no
longer supported.
• Chapter 33, “Error Messages,” starting on page 821, lists the instrument
error messages that can occur while programming the oscilloscope.
The command descriptions in this reference show upper and lowercase
characters. For example, :AUToscale indicates that the entire command
name is :AUTOSCALE. The short form, :AUT, is also accepted by the
oscilloscope.
Then, there are chapters that describe programming topics and conceptual
information in more detail:
• Chapter 34, “Status Reporting,” starting on page 829, describes the
oscilloscope's status registers and how to check the status of the
instrument.
• Chapter 35, “Synchronizing Acquisitions,” starting on page 849,
describes how to wait for acquisitions to complete before querying
measurement results or performing other operations with the captured
data.
• Chapter 36, “More About Oscilloscope Commands,” starting on page
859, contains additional information about oscilloscope programming
commands.
Finally, there is a chapter that contains programming examples:
