DATA:CATalog?
List the names of all waveforms currently downloaded to memory.
Returns the names of the five built-in waveforms (non-volatile memory),
“
VOLATILE
” if a waveform is currently downloaded to volatile memory,
and all user-defined waveforms downloaded to non-volatile memory.
œ
A series of quoted strings separated with commas is returned:
"SINC","NEG_RAMP","EXP_RISE","EXP_FALL",
"CARDIAC","VOLATILE","ARB_1","ARB_2"
œ
Use the
DATA:DEL
command to delete the waveform in
VOLATILE
memory or any of the user-defined waveforms in non-volatile memory.
DATA:COPY <
destination arb name
> [,VOLATILE]
Copy the waveform from volatile memory to the specified name in
non-volatile memory. The source for the copy is always “
VOLATILE
”
(you cannot copy from any other name) and you cannot copy to
VOLATILE
. The
VOLATILE
parameter is optional and can be omitted.
œ
The arb name may contain up to 8 characters. The first character
must be a letter (A-Z), but the remaining characters can be
numbers (0-9) or the underscore character (“ _ ”). Blank spaces are
not allowed. If you specify a name with more than 8 characters,
a
+783, “Arb waveform name too long” error is generated.
œ
The following built-in waveform names are reserved and cannot be
used with the
DATA:COPY
command:
SINC
,
NEG_RAMP
,
EXP_RISE
,
EXP_FALL
, and
CARDIAC
. If you specify one of the built-in waveforms,
a +782, “Cannot overwrite a built-in arb waveform” error is generated.
œ
The function generator does not distinguish between upper- and
lower-case letters. Therefore,
ARB_1
and
arb_1
are the same name.
All characters are converted to upper case.
