Limit Test Commands
SWAVeform
<filename>
An ASCII string enclosed in quotation marks. If no filename is specified, the default filename
will be
MeasLimitSummaryX.sum
, where X is an incremental number assigned by the
instrument. If a filename is specified without a path, the default path will be
D:\User
files\limit summaries
. (C drive on 86100A/B instruments.)
N O T E
If the summary of consecutive limit tests is to be stored in separate files, omit the <filename> parameter. Limit
test summaries will be stored in files named
MeasLimitSummaryX.sum
, where X is an incremental number
assigned by the instrument.
Example
The following example saves the summary to a disk file named
TEST.sum
.
10 OUTPUT 707;”:LTEST:SSUMMARY DISK,TEST”
Query
:LTESt:SSUMmary?
The query returns the current specified destination for the summary.
Returned Format
[:LTESt:SSUMmary] {OFF | DISK {,<filename>}}<NL>
Example
The following example returns the current destination for the summary.
10 DIM SUMM$[50]
20 OUTPUT 707;”:LTEST:SSUMMARY?”
30 ENTER 707;SUMM$
SWAVeform
Command
:LTESt:SWAVeform <source>, <destination>[,<filename>[, <format>]]
This command saves waveforms from a channel, function, TDR response or waveform mem-
ory in the event of measurement limit test termination, as specified by the :LTEST:RUNTil
command. Each waveform source can be individually specified, allowing multiple channels,
responses or functions to be saved to disk or waveform memories. Setting a particular source
to OFF removes any waveform save action from that source.
N O T E
This command operates on waveform and color grade gray scale data which is not compatible with Jitter Mode.
Do not use this command in Jitter Mode. It generates a “Settings conflict” error.
<source>
{CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<N> | WMEMory<N> | RESPonse<N>}
<destination>
{OFF | WMEMory<N> | DISK}
<filename>
An ASCII string enclosed in quotation marks. If no filename is specified, the assigned file-
name will be
MeasLimitChN_X
,
MeasLimitFnN_X
,
MeasLimitRspN_X
, or
MeasLimitMemN_X
, where X is an incremental number assigned by the instrument. If no
path is specified, the default path will be
D:\User Files\waveforms
. (C drive on
86100A/B instruments.)
N O T E
If the selected waveforms of consecutive limit tests are to be stored in individual files, omit the <filename>
parameter. The waveforms will be stored in the default format (INTERNAL) using the default naming scheme.
<format>
{TEXT [,YVALues | VERBose] | INTernal}
where INTernal is the default value, and VERBose is the default value for TEXT.
Example
The following example turns off the saving of waveforms from channel 1 in the event of a limit
test failure.
