3 Commands by Subsystem A waveform record consists of either all of the acquired points or a subset of the acquired points. The number of points acquired may be queried using :ACQuire:POINts? (see page 130). Helpful Hints: The number of points transferred to the computer is controlled using the :WAVeform:POINts command (see page 413). If :WAVeform:POINts MAXimum is specified and the instrument is not running (stopped), all of the points that are displayed are transferred.
3 Commands by Subsystem This data is transmitted over the interface linearly, starting with time bucket 0 and proceeding through time bucket n- 1, where n is the number returned by the :WAVeform:POINts? query (see page 413). The first value corresponds to a point at the left side of the screen and the last value corresponds to one point away from the right side of the screen. The maximum number of points that can be returned in average mode is 1000 unless ACQuire:COUNt has been set to 1.

This is the same value as the front- panel cursors delta Y value.
5 Obsolete and Discontinued Commands :MEASure:VSTArt (see page 530) Command Syntax :MEASure:VSTArt ::= value for vertical marker 1 The :MEASure:VSTArt command moves the vertical marker (Y1 cursor) to the specified value corresponding to the selected source. The source can be selected by the MARKer:X1Y1source command. NOTE The short form of this command, VSTA, does not follow the defined Long Form to Short Form Truncation Rules (see page 532).
5 Obsolete and Discontinued Commands :MEASure:VSTOp (see page 530) Command Syntax :MEASure:VSTOp ::= value for Y2 cursor The :MEASure:VSTOp command moves the vertical marker 2 (Y2 cursor) to the specified value corresponding to the selected source. The source can be selected by the MARKer:X2Y2source command. NOTE The short form of this command, VSTO, does not follow the defined Long Form to Short Form Truncation Rules (see page 532).
5 Obsolete and Discontinued Commands :PRINt? (see page 530) Query Syntax :PRINt? [] ::= [][,..,] ::= {COLor | GRAYscale | BMP8bit | BMP} The :PRINt? query pulls image data back over the bus for storage. NOTE 492 The :PRINT command is an obsolete command provided for compatibility to previous oscilloscopes. Use the :DISPlay:DATA command (see page 164) instead.
Obsolete and Discontinued Commands NOTE See Also Old Print Option: Is Now: DISK invalid PCL invalid 5 The PRINt? query is not a core command.
5 Obsolete and Discontinued Commands :TIMebase:DELay (see page 530) Command Syntax :TIMebase:DELay ::= time in seconds from trigger to the delay reference point on the screen. The valid range for delay settings depends on the time/division setting for the main time base. The :TIMebase:DELay command sets the main time base delay. This delay is the time between the trigger event and the delay reference point on the screen.
Obsolete and Discontinued Commands 5 :TRIGger:CAN:ACKNowledge (see page 530) Command Syntax :TRIGger:CAN:ACKNowledge ::= {0 | OFF} This command was used with the N2758A CAN trigger module for 54620/54640 Series mixed- signal oscilloscopes. The InfiniiVision 5000 Series oscilloscopes do not support the N2758A CAN trigger module. Query Syntax :TRIGger:CAN:ACKNowledge? The :TRIGger:CAN:ACKNowledge? query returns the current CAN acknowledge setting.
5 Obsolete and Discontinued Commands :TRIGger:CAN:SIGNal:DEFinition (see page 530) Command Syntax :TRIGger:CAN:SIGNal:DEFinition ::= {CANH | CANL | RX | TX | DIFFerential} The :TRIGger:CAN:SIGNal:DEFinition command sets the CAN signal type when :TRIGger:CAN:TRIGger is set to SOF (start of frame).

Status Reporting 7 The status register bits are described in more detail in the following tables: • "Status Byte Register (STB)" on page 81 • "Standard Event Status Register (ESR)" on page 68 • "Operation Status Condition Register" on page 107 • "Operation Status Event Register" on page 109 • "Overload Event Register (OVLR)" on page 113 • "Hardware Event Condition Register" on page 100 • "Hardware Event Event Register" on page 102 The status registers picture above shows how the different status reporting
7 Status Reporting Status Byte Register (STB) The Status Byte Register is the summary- level register in the status reporting structure. It contains summary bits that monitor activity in the other status registers and queues. The Status Byte Register is a live register. That is, its summary bits are set and cleared by the presence and absence of a summary bit from other event registers or queues.
7 Status Reporting The next program prints 0xD1 and clears bit 6 (RQS) and bit 4 (MAV) of the Status Byte Register. The difference in the output value between this example and the previous one is the value of bit 6 (weight = 64). Bit 6 is set when the first enabled summary bit is set and is cleared when the Status Byte Register is read by the serial poll command.
7 Status Reporting Service Request Enable Register (SRE) Setting the Service Request Enable Register bits enable corresponding bits in the Status Byte Register. These enabled bits can then set RQS and MSS (bit 6) in the Status Byte Register. Bits are set in the Service Request Enable Register using the *SRE command and the bits that are set are read with the *SRE? query. Example The following example sets bit 4 (MAV) and bit 5 (ESB) in the Service Request Enable Register. myScope.
Status Reporting 7 Trigger Event Register (TER) This register sets the TRG bit in the status byte when a trigger event occurs. The TER event register stays set until it is cleared by reading the register or using the *CLS command. If your application needs to detect multiple triggers, the TER event register must be cleared after each one. If you are using the Service Request to interrupt a program or controller operation, you must clear the event register each time the trigger bit is set.
7 Status Reporting Output Queue The output queue stores the oscilloscope- to- controller responses that are generated by certain instrument commands and queries. The output queue generates the Message Available summary bit when the output queue contains one or more bytes. This summary bit sets the MAV bit (bit 4) in the Status Byte Register. When using the Agilent VISA COM library, the output queue may be read with the FormattedIO488 object's ReadString, ReadNumber, ReadList, or ReadIEEEBlock methods.
7 Status Reporting Message Queue The message queue contains the text of the last message written to the advisory line on the screen of the oscilloscope. The length of the oscilloscope's message queue is 1. Note that messages sent with the :SYSTem:DSP command do not set the MSG status bit in the Status Byte Register.
7 Status Reporting (Standard) Event Status Register (ESR) The (Standard) Event Status Register (ESR) monitors the following oscilloscope status events: • PON - Power On • URQ - User Request • CME - Command Error • EXE - Execution Error • DDE - Device Dependent Error • QYE - Query Error • RQC - Request Control • OPC - Operation Complete When one of these events occur, the event sets the corresponding bit in the register.
7 Status Reporting (Standard) Event Status Enable Register (ESE) To allow any of the (Standard) Event Status Register (ESR) bits to generate a summary bit, you must first enable that bit. Enable the bit by using the *ESE (Event Status Enable) common command to set the corresponding bit in the (Standard) Event Status Enable Register (ESE). Set bits are read with the *ESE? query. Example Suppose your application requires an interrupt whenever any type of error occurs.
7 Status Reporting Error Queue As errors are detected, they are placed in an error queue. This queue is first in, first out. If the error queue overflows, the last error in the queue is replaced with error 350, Queue overflow. Any time the queue overflows, the least recent errors remain in the queue, and the most recent error is discarded. The length of the oscilloscope's error queue is 30 (29 positions for the error messages, and 1 position for the Queue overflow message).
Status Reporting 7 Operation Status Event Register (:OPERegister[:EVENt]) This register hosts the RUN bit (bit 3), the WAIT TRIG bit (bit 5), and the OVLR bit (bit 11). • The RUN bit is set whenever the instrument goes from a stop state to a single or running state. • The WAIT TRIG bit is set by the Trigger Armed Event Register and indicates that the trigger is armed. • The OVLR bit is set whenever a 50Ω input overload occurs.
7 Status Reporting Operation Status Condition Register (:OPERegister:CONDition) This register hosts the RUN bit (bit 3), the WAIT TRIG bit (bit 5), the OVLR bit (bit 11), and the HWE bit (bit 12). • The :OPERegister:CONDition? query returns the value of the Operation Status Condition Register. • The HWE bit (bit 12) comes from the Hardware Event Registers. • The RUN bit is set whenever the instrument is not stopped.
Status Reporting 7 Arm Event Register (AER) This register sets bit 5 (Wait Trig bit) in the Operation Status Register and the OPER bit (bit 7) in the Status Byte Register when the instrument becomes armed. The ARM event register stays set until it is cleared by reading the register with the AER? query or using the *CLS command. If your application needs to detect multiple triggers, the ARM event register must be cleared after each one.
7 Status Reporting Hardware Event Event Register (:HWERegister[:EVENt]) This register hosts the PLL LOCKED bit (bit 12). • The PLL LOCKED bit (bit 12) is for internal use and is not intended for general use.
Status Reporting 7 Hardware Event Condition Register (:HWERegister:CONDition) This register hosts the PLL LOCKED bit (bit 12). • The :HWERegister:CONDition? query returns the value of the Hardware Event Condition Register. • The PLL LOCKED bit (bit 12) is for internal use and is not intended for general use.
7 Status Reporting Clearing Registers and Queues The *CLS common command clears all event registers and all queues except the output queue. If *CLS is sent immediately after a program message terminator, the output queue is also cleared.

8 More About Oscilloscope Commands Instruction Header The instruction header is one or more mnemonics separated by colons (:) that represent the operation to be performed by the instrument. The "Command Tree" on page 535 illustrates how all the mnemonics can be joined together to form a complete header. ":DISPlay:LABel ON" is a command. Queries are indicated by adding a question mark (?) to the end of the header, for example, ":DISPlay:LABel?".
8 More About Oscilloscope Commands • When the command/keyword is longer than four characters, use the first four characters of the command/keyword unless the fourth character is a vowel; when the fourth character is a vowel, use the first three characters of the command/keyword. • When the command/keyword is four or fewer characters, use all of the characters.
8 More About Oscilloscope Commands For example, :CHANnel1:BWLimit ON Common Command Headers Common command headers control IEEE 488.2 functions within the instrument (such as clear status). Their syntax is: * No space or separator is allowed between the asterisk (*) and the command header. *CLS is an example of a common command header. Program Data Syntax Rules Program data is used to convey a parameter information related to the command header.
More About Oscilloscope Commands 8 When a syntax definition specifies that a number is an integer, that means that the number should be whole. Any fractional part will be ignored, truncating the number. Numeric data parameters accept fractional values are called real numbers. All numbers must be strings of ASCII characters. Thus, when sending the number 9, you would send a byte representing the ASCII code for the character 9 (which is 57).

8 More About Oscilloscope Commands Query Return Values Command headers immediately followed by a question mark (?) are queries. Queries are used to get results of measurements made by the instrument or to find out how the instrument is currently configured. After receiving a query, the instrument interrogates the requested function and places the answer in its output queue. The answer remains in the output queue until it is read or another command is issued.
8 More About Oscilloscope Commands All Oscilloscope Commands Are Sequential IEEE 488.2 makes the distinction between sequential and overlapped commands: • Sequential commands finish their task before the execution of the next command starts. • Overlapped commands run concurrently. Commands following an overlapped command may be started before the overlapped command is completed. All of the oscilloscope commands are sequential.
