Waveform Data
Header
A waveform may have more than one data set. Each waveform data set will have a
waveform data header. The waveform data header consists of information about
the waveform data set. This header is stored immediately before the data set.

analog channels.
Waveform Data
Header Size
A 32-bit integer that is the size of the waveform data header.
Buffer Type
A 16-bit short that is the type of waveform data stored in the file:
•
0 = Unknown data.
•
1 = Normal 32-bit float data.
•
2 = Maximum float data.
•
3 = Minimum float data.
•
4 = Not used in InfiniiVision oscilloscopes.
•
5 = Not used in InfiniiVision oscilloscopes.
•
6 = Digital unsigned 8-bit char data (for digital channels).
Bytes Per Point
A 16-bit short that is the number of bytes per data point.
Buffer Size
A 32-bit integer that is the size of the buffer required to hold the data points.
