Keysight InfiniiVision 2000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 5
• Chapter 26, “:SEARch Commands,” starting on page 531, describes commands
that control oscilloscope functions associated with searching for waveform
events.
• Chapter 27, “:SYSTem Commands,” starting on page 563, describes
commands that control basic system functions of the oscilloscope.
• Chapter 28, “:TIMebase Commands,” starting on page 577, describes
commands that control all horizontal sweep functions.
• Chapter 29, “:TRIGger Commands,” starting on page 589, describes commands
that control the trigger modes and parameters for each trigger type.
• Chapter 30, “:WAVeform Commands,” starting on page 627, describes
commands that provide access to waveform data.
• Chapter 31, “:WGEN Commands,” starting on page 663, describes commands
that control waveform generator (Option WGN) functions and parameters.
• Chapter 32, “:WMEMory<r> Commands,” starting on page 693, describes
commands that control reference waveforms.
• Chapter 33, “Obsolete and Discontinued Commands,” starting on page 703,
describes obsolete commands which still work but have been replaced by
newer commands and discontinued commands which are no longer supported.
• Chapter 34, “Error Messages,” starting on page 751, lists the instrument error
messages that can occur while programming the oscilloscope.
The command descriptions in this reference show upper and lowercase characters.
For example, :AUToscale indicates that the entire command name is :AUTOSCALE.
The short form, :AUT, is also accepted by the oscilloscope.
Then, there are chapters that describe programming topics and conceptual
information in more detail:
• Chapter 35, “Status Reporting,” starting on page 759, describes the
oscilloscope's status registers and how to check the status of the instrument.
• Chapter 36, “Synchronizing Acquisitions,” starting on page 781, describes how
to wait for acquisitions to complete before querying measurement results or
performing other operations with the captured data.
• Chapter 37, “More About Oscilloscope Commands,” starting on page 791,
contains additional information about oscilloscope programming commands.
Finally, there is a chapter that contains programming examples:
• Chapter 38, “Programming Examples,” starting on page 801.

Channel
Differences
Because both the "analog channels only" oscilloscopes (DSO models) and the
mixed-signal oscilloscopes (MSO models) have analog channels, topics that
describe analog channels refer to all oscilloscope models. Whenever a topic
describes digital channels, that information applies only to the mixed-signal
oscilloscope models.
