:DISPlay:GRATicule
Commands :DISPlay:GRATicule {GRID | FRAMe}
:DISPlay:GRATicule:INTensity <intensity_value>
:DISPlay:GRATicule:NUMBer {1 |2|4}
:DISPlay:GRATicule:SETGrat <DispGratChan>, <number>
The :DISPlay:GRATicule command selects the type of graticule that is
displayed. Infiniium oscilloscopes have a 10- by- 8 (unit) display graticule
grid GRID), a grid line is place on each vertical and horizontal division.
When it is off (FRAMe), a frame with tic marks surrounds the graticule
edges.
You can dim the grid's intensity or turn the grid off to better view
waveforms that might be obscured by the graticule lines using the
:DISPlay:GRATicule:INTensity command. Otherwise, you can use the grid to
estimate waveform measurements such as amplitude and period.
When printing, the grid intensity control does not affect the hard copy. To
remove the grid from a printed hard copy, you must turn off the grid
before printing.
The :SETGrat command assigns the corresponding waveform to a specific
grid on the display. For example, :DISP:GRAT:SETG HIST, 2 would assign
the histogram to grid 2.
<intensity
_value>
A integer from 0 to 100, indicating the percentage of grid intensity.
<DispGratChan> CHN<N>, DIFF1, DIFF3, COMM2, COMM41, MEM<N> where N is between 1
and 4, FN<N> where N is between 1 and 4 (function), HIST
You can divide the waveform viewing area from one area into two or four
separate viewing areas using the :DISPlay:GRATicule:NUMBer command.
This allows you to separate waveforms without having to adjust the
vertical position controls.
Example This example sets up the oscilloscope's display background with a frame
that is separated into major and minor divisions.

Queries :DISPlay:GRATicule?
:DISPlay:GRATicule:INTensity?
:DISPlay:GRATicule:NUMBer?
The :DISPlay:GRATicule?, :DISPlay:GRATicule:INTensity?, and
DISPlay:GRATicule:NUMBer? queries return the type of graticule currently
displayed, the intensity, or the number of viewing areas, depending on the
query you request.
