Agilent Infiniium 9000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Reference 169
:ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital
(Digital Channels Sample RATe)
Command
:ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital {AUTO | MAX | <rate>}
The :ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital command sets the digital acquisition sampling
rate.
AUTO The AUTO rate allows the oscilloscope to select a sample rate that best
accommodates the selected memory depth and horizontal scale.
MAX The MAX rate enables the oscilloscope to select maximum available sample
rate.
<rate> A real number representing the digital sample rate. You can send any
value, but the value is rounded to the next fastest sample rate.
Interaction
between
:ACQuire:SRATe:D
IGital and
:ACQuire:POINts:
DIGital?
If you assign a sample rate value with :ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital, the digital
memory depth is automatically adjusted and can be seen by using the
query :ACQuire:POINts:DIGital
Query
:ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital?
The :ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital? query returns the current digital acquisition
sample rate.
Returned Format
[:ACQuire:SRATe:DIGital] {<rate>}<NL>
Example This example places the current digital channel sample rate in the string
variable, strSample, then prints the contents of the variable to the
computer's screen.
Dim strSample As String ' Dimension variable.
myScope.WriteString ":ACQUIRE:SRATE:DIGital?"
strSample = myScope.ReadString
Debug.Print strSample
