:ACQuire:HRESolution
Command
:ACQuire:HRESolution {AUTO | BITS9 | BITS10 | BITS11 | BITS12}
When :ACQuire:MODE is set to HRESolution or SEGHres, the
:ACQuire:HRESolution command sets the desired minimum bit resolution.
• AUTO — the number of bits of vertical resolution is determined by the
sampling rate, which can be controlled manually by the :ACQuire:SRATe
command or automatically when adjusting :TIMebase:SCALe (or
:TIMebase:RANGe).
• BITS9, BITS10, BITS11, BITS12 — selects the desired minimum number
of bits of vertical resolution (which can affect the sampling rate).
Example
This example sets the bit resolution setting to a minimum of 11 bits.
myScope.WriteString ":ACQuire:HRESolution BITS11"
Query
:ACQuire:HRESolution?
The :ACQuire:HRESolution? query returns the bit resolution setting.
Returned Format
[:ACQuire:HRESolution] {AUTO | BITS9 | BITS10 | BITS11 | BITS12}<NL>
Example This example places the current bit resolution setting in the string
variable, strBitRes, then prints the contents of the variable to the
computer's screen.
Dim strBitRes As String ' Dimension variable.
myScope.WriteString ":ACQuire:HRESolution?"
strBitRes = myScope.ReadString
Debug.Print strBitRes
