34 Waveform Commands
X Increment The X increment is the duration between data points on the X axis. For
time domain waveforms, this is the time between points. (See the
":WAVeform:XINCrement?" on page 1133 query.)
X Origin The X origin is the X-axis value of the first data point in the data record.
For time domain waveforms, it is the time of the first point. This value is
treated as a double precision 64-bit floating point number. (See the
":WAVeform:XORigin?" on page 1134 query.)
X Reference The X reference is the data point associated with the X origin. It is at this
data point that the X origin is defined. In this oscilloscope, the value is
always zero. (See the ":WAVeform:XREFerence?" on page 1136 query.)
Y Increment The Y increment is the duration between Y-axis levels. For voltage
waveforms, it is the voltage corresponding to one level. (See the
":WAVeform:YINCrement?" on page 1139 query.)
Y Origin The Y origin is the Y-axis value at level zero. For voltage waveforms, it is
the voltage at level zero. (See the ":WAVeform:YORigin?" on page 1140
query.)
Y Reference The Y reference is the level associated with the Y origin. It is at this level
that the Y origin is defined. In this oscilloscope, this value is always zero.
(See the ":WAVeform:YREFerence?" on page 1142 query.)
Coupling The input coupling of the waveform. The coupling value is ignored when
sent to the oscilloscope in the preamble. (See the
":WAVeform:COUPling?" on page 1090 query.)
X Display Range The X display range is the X-axis duration of the waveform that is
displayed. For time domain waveforms, it is the duration of time across
the display. (See the ":WAVeform:XRANge?" on page 1135 query.)
X Display Origin The X display origin is the X-axis value at the left edge of the display. For
time domain waveforms, it is the time at the start of the display. This
value is treated as a double precision 64-bit floating point number. (See
the ":WAVeform:XDISplay?" on page 1132 query.)
Y Display Range The Y display range is the Y-axis duration of the waveform which is
displayed. For voltage waveforms, it is the amount of voltage across the
display. (See the ":WAVeform:YRANge?" on page 1141 query.)
Y Display Origin The Y-display origin is the Y-axis value at the center of the display. For
voltage waveforms, it is the voltage at the center of the display. (See the
":WAVeform:YDISplay?" on page 1138 query.)
Date The date that the waveform was acquired or created.
Time The time that the waveform was acquired or created.
Frame Model # The model number of the frame that acquired or created this waveform.
The frame model number is ignored when it is sent to an oscilloscope in
the preamble.
