BLANk
Command
:BLANk {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<N> | WMEMory<N> | JDMemory | RESPonse<N> | HISTogram | CGMemory}
This command turns off an active channel, function, waveform memory, jitter data memory,
TDR response, histogram, or color grade memory. The VIEW command turns them on. <N> is
an integer, 1 through 4.
Restrictions

CDISplay
Command
:CDISplay [CHANnel<N>]
This command clears the display and resets all associated measurements. If the analyzer is
stopped, all currently displayed data is erased. If the analyzer is running, all of the data in
active channels and functions is erased; however, new data is displayed on the next acquisi-
tion. Waveform memories are not erased. If a channel is specified as a parameter, only the dis-
played data from that channel is cleared. <N> is an integer, 1 through 4.
Restrictions
In TDR mode (software revision A.06.00 and above), the optional channel argument is not
allowed.
Example
10 OUTPUT 707;":CDISPLAY"
