5-3, 16-bit Waveform Data Point Representation
Parameters
Name Type Description
<header> Discrete Contains information on the size of the binary block
that contains waveform coordinates.
<binary_block> Binary Block of binary data that contains information on the
waveform coordinates.
TRACe:DEFine<segment_number>,<length>
Description
Use this command to attach size to a specific memory segment. The final size of the arbitrary memory is
1M points (2M optional). The memory can be partitioned to smaller segments, up to 10k segments. This
function allows definition of segment size. Total length of memory segments cannot exceed the size of the
waveform memory.
NOTE
The 2074 operates in interlaced mode where four memory cells generate one byte of
data. Therefore, segment size can be programmed in numbers evenly divisible by
four only. For example, 2096 bytes is an acceptable length for a binary block. 2002 is
not a multiple of 4, therefore the generator will generate an error message if this
segment length is used.
Parameters
Name Range Type Default Description
<segment_
number> 1 to 10k Numeric
(integer only) 1 Selects the segment number of which will be
programmed using this command
<length> 16 to
1(2)M Numeric
(integer only) Programs the size of the selected segment. Minimum
segment length is 16 points, the maximum is limited
by the memory option that is installed in your
instrument either 1M or 2M
