value with
AcqSetParam(),
or (if
skip_dialog
is false) the user’s selection of the Cancel
button.
Once the measurement begins collecting data, the script’s
EventAcqTriggered()
event
handler (if any) will be called. Prior to this stage, the script’s
EventAcqSetup()
handler will
be called if one is defined. Because
AcqStartAcquisition()
returns immediately after
launching the acquisition thread, measurement-specific parameters such as
Input Freq
will not be available to the script until
EventAcqTriggered()
is called.
Optionally, a third parameter may be passed, consisting of an arbitrary numeric
user_value
which will be made available to subsequent event handlers.
AcqStopAcquisition()
Immediately stops any acquisition associated with the running script instance and calls
the script’s
EventAcqDone()
handler (if any). Unless a fatal error occurs, the plot(s) will not
be closed and the script will continue to run until
ScriptEnd()
is called.
AcqSetupEnd()
Applications that include
EventAcqSetup()
handlers must call
AcqSetupEnd()
when their setup
phase is complete. Until
AcqSetupEnd()
is called, the 53100A driver will remain in an
endless loop awaiting further setup commands from the script.
DisplayFontSize([Number points])
Sets or returns the size of the main display font size used in the TimeLab window. This is
the same value that is adjusted by the commands on the
Display menu.
If no parameter is specified, the current font size is returned without alteration.
DisplayOverlayMode([Boolean overlay_mode])
Equivalent to the
Display →Browse plots one at a time (
b
)
or
Display→Overlay all
loaded plots ( o ) command, depending on the
overlay_mode
parameter.
The
overlay_mode
parameter is optional; if it is not provided by the script, the function
simply returns true in Overlay mode or false in Browse mode. If a new
overlay_mode
value is specified, the function returns the previous display mode.
DisplayShowNumTab([Boolean status])
Sets and/or retrieves the
status
of the flag controlled by Display→Numeric table ( Ctrl-n ) .
Refer to this command for more information.
To return the current flag value, call
DisplayShowNumTab()
with no argument.
