Waveform Commands 32
Agilent Infiniium 90000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Reference 899
:WAVeform:SOURce
Command :WAVeform:SOURce {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<N> | HISTogram | WMEMory<N>
| CLOCk | MTRend | MSPectrum | EQUalized}
The :WAVeform:SOURce command selects a channel, function, waveform
memory, or histogram as the waveform source.
MTRend and MSPectrum sources are only available if the oscilloscope has
the EZJIT option installed and the feature is enabled.
The CLOCk source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High Speed
Serial option installed and the feature is enabled.
The EQUalized source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High
Speed Serial option and the Serial Data Equalization option installed and
the features are enabled. This command uses the Feed- Forward Equalized
(FFE) signal as the source.
<N> CHANnel<N> is an integer, 1 - 4.
FUNCtion<N> and WMEMory<N> are:
Integers, 1 - 4, representing the selected function or waveform memory.
Example This example selects channel 1 as the waveform source.
myScope.WriteString ":WAVEFORM:SOURCE CHANNEL1"
Query :WAVeform:SOURce?
The :WAVeform:SOURce? query returns the currently selected waveform
source.
Returned Format
[:WAVeform:SOURce] {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<N> | HISTogram | WMEMory<N>
| CLOCk | MTRend | MSPectrum | EQUalized}<NL>
Example This example places the current selection for the waveform source in the
string variable, strSelection, then prints the contents of the variable to the
computer's screen.
Dim strSelection As String ' Dimension variable.
myScope.WriteString ":WAVEFORM:SOURCE?"
strSelection = myScope.ReadString
Debug.Print strSelection
