:ACQuire Commands
:ACQuire:SRATe[:ANALog]
(see page 1196 )
Command Syntax
:ACQuire:SRATe[:ANALog] <rate>
<rate> ::= {AUTO | <sample_rate>}
<sample_rate> ::= desired analog sample rate in NR3 format
Sets the desired acquisition sample rate:
• AUTO — puts the oscilloscope into Automatic (default) mode where the optimal
sample rate is selected automatically by the oscilloscope.
• <sample_rate> — If a numerical sample rate value is entered, this puts the
oscilloscope into Digitizer (manual) mode with the desired sample rate.
The Automatic or Digitizer mode setting also affects the memory depth (see the
:ACQuire:POINts[:ANALog] command).
The actual sample rate used is returned by the :ACQuire:SRATe[:ANALog]? query.
Query Syntax
:ACQuire:SRATe[:ANALog]? [MAXimum]
The :ACQuire:SRATe[:ANALog]? query returns the current oscilloscope acquisition
sample rate. The sample rate is not directly controllable.
When the MAXimum parameter is used, the oscilloscope's maximum possible
sample rate is returned.
Return Format
<sample_rate><NL>
<sample_rate> ::= sample rate in NR3 format
