:TRACe<n> Commands (For MSO2000A-S/DS2000A-S)
The [:TRACe<n>] commands are used to set the arbitrary waveform related parameters of the built-in
signal source. <n> denotes the corresponding built-in signal source channels and can be 1 or 2. When
[:TRACe<n>] is omitted, the operation is applied to Source1 by default.

Syntax
[:TRACe<n>]:DATA VOLATILE,<value>,<value> [,<value>[,<value>...]]
Description
Download the floating point voltage values to the volatile memory of the specified signal source.
Parameter
Name Type Range Default
<value> Real -1 to 1 --
<n> Discrete {1|2} 1
Explanation
 <value> denotes the floating point voltage values. -1 and 1 correspond to the minimum and
maximum values of the waveform amplitude respectively. For example, when the amplitude is 5Vpp
and the offset is 0V
DC
, -1 corresponds to -2.5V and 1 corresponds to 2.5V. This command will
overwrite the previous waveform in the volatile memory (no error will be generated).
 2 to 16384 points can be downloaded each time.
 After sending this command, the specified signal source channel switches to volatile waveform
output automatically. While at the same time, the number of initial points is modified. Users can edit
the data downloaded using this command on the instrument.
Example
:DATA VOLATILE,0.25,-0.5 /*Download two floating point voltage values into the volatile memory of
the source 1*/
