2) The 'scale' refers to the scaling of the waveform as a percentage of full scale. A scale of 100% will,
under the correct conditions, generate a waveform whose data values range from -8191 to +8191.
These 'correct conditions' are set by the 'offset' value. This offset is the value of the data at the start
address, and determines the maximum scale settable. The following table shows the data values
required in order to achieve maximum scale.

Start Address
:ARBitrary:STARt <start address>
This command sets the start address of the waveform to be run.
Arguments
Type:
Numeric
Range:
1 to 16381
Rounding:
to integer value
Command Type:
Setting or Query
Setting
Syntax:
:ARBitrary:STARt<ws><start address>
:ARBitrary:STARt<ws>MINimum|MAXimum
Example:
:ARB:STAR 100
Query
Syntax:
:ARBitrary:STARt?[<ws>MINimum|MAXimum]
Examples:
:ARB:START?
:ARB:STAR? MIN
Response:
NR1
Considerations: The start address and length must meet the condition:
Start A Length - 1 <= 16382
Wavelength
:ARBitrary:LENGth <length>
This command sets the length of the waveform being run.
