Also, use INSPECT? "SIMPLE" to examine the measured data values of a waveform. For example, the reply
to an acquisition with 52 points would look like the following:
INSPECT? "SIMPLE"

The numbers in the previous table are the fully-converted measurements in volts.
Depending on the application, you may prefer the to see the data using either a BYTE (8 bits) or a WORD
(16 bits) for each data value. In that case, use either:
INSPECT? "SIMPLE",BYTE
INSPECT? "SIMPLE",WORD
The examination of data values for waveforms with two data arrays can be performed as follows:
INSPECT? "DUAL" to get pairs of data values on a single line
INSPECT? "DATA_ARRAY_1" to get the values of the first data array
INSPECT? "DATA_ARRAY_2" to get the values of the second data array
INSPECT? has its limitations; it is useful, but wordy. INSPECT? cannot be used to quickly transfer an entire
waveform to and from the oscilloscope. To do this, use the WAVEFORM? query and WAVEFORM
command, instead. With WAVEFORM_SETUP, you can inspect a sparse form of the waveform.
If you are a BASIC user, you might also find it convenient to use INSPECT? and WAVEFORM? together to
construct files containing a version of the Waveform Descriptor that both you and BASIC can read. Stored
waveforms can be read in a format suitable for retransfer to the instrument using:
C1:INSPECT? "WAVEDESC";WAVEFORM?
Place the response directly into a file.
