Waveform Commands
:WAVeform:SOURce
Command
:WAVeform:SOURce {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<F> | HISTogram | WMEMory<N>
| CLOCk | MTRend | MSPectrum | EQUalized | BUS<N>
| POD1 | POD2 | PODALL}
The :WAVeform:SOURce command selects a channel, function, waveform
memory, or histogram as the waveform source.
MTRend and MSPectrum sources are only available if the oscilloscope has
the EZJIT option installed and the feature is enabled.
The CLOCk source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High Speed
Serial option installed and the feature is enabled.
The EQUalized source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High
Speed Serial option and the Serial Data Equalization option installed and
the features are enabled. This command uses the Feed- Forward Equalized
(FFE) signal as the source.
POD1 is the activated digital channels in the D0- D7 set while POD2 is the
activated digital channels in the D8- D15 set. PODALL is all the activated
digital channels.
<N> CHANnel<N> is an integer, 1- 4.
BUS<N> is an integer, 1- 4.
WMEMory<N> is an integer, 1- 4.
<F>
FUNCtion<F> is an integer, 1- 16.
Example This example selects channel 1 as the waveform source.
myScope.WriteString ":WAVeform:SOURce CHANnel1"
Query
:WAVeform:SOURce?
The :WAVeform:SOURce? query returns the currently selected waveform
source.
Returned Format
[:WAVeform:SOURce] {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<F> | HISTogram | WMEMory<N>
| CLOCk | MTRend | MSPectrum | EQUalized | BUS<N>
| POD1 | POD2 | PODALL}<NL>
Example This example places the current selection for the waveform source in the
string variable, strSelection, then prints the contents of the variable to the
computer's screen.
Dim strSelection As String ' Dimension variable.
myScope.WriteString ":WAVeform:SOURce?"
strSelection = myScope.ReadString
Debug.Print strSelection
