Usage
:TRACe:POINts <newSize>
:TRACe:POINts <newSize>, <bufferName>
:TRACe:POINts?
:TRACe:POINts? <bufferName>
<newSize>
The new size for the buffer.
<bufferName>
A string that indicates the reading buffer; the default buffers (
defbuffer1
or
defbuffer2
) or the name of a user-defined buffer; if no buffer is specified,
this parameter defaults to
defbuffer1
Details
Use this command to read the number of measurements that a buffer can store.
Use this command to change the number of readings buffers can store. The number of readings that user-
defined buffers can store initially is set when they are created. Default buffers can store 10000 measurements
initially.
Example
TRACe:MAKE "testData", 100
TRACe:POINts 300, "testData"
TRACe:POINts? "testData"
TRACe:POINts?
Create a user-defined reading buffer:
testData
, with the capacity for 100
measurements.
Change the buffer capacity to 300.
Query the capacity of
testData
.
Output:
300
Query the capacity of the default buffer.
