The Language Syntax
Syntax flow diagrams (also known as railroad diagrams) are used to
provide pictorial representations of syntax.
Vector Variable Construct
The vector import language is contained in an ASCII text file and
contains one or more
Vector Variable constructs
. A Vector Variable
construct is the highest level construct that may be specified and is
itself built from lower level constructs.
The format of the
Vector Variable construct
is shown below:
<Options> contains 1 or more default parameters that may be
overridden as necessary. There are two scopes for options,
vector
variable scope and pattern scope
. The options constructs will be
described in more detail in
“Options” on page 323
.
Segment Construct
The
Segment construct
contains
segment
information. A segment is a
unit of information acceptable to the Agilent 81250 System and may
contain either connector trace data or parameters necessary for the
operation of the instrument. The following syntax diagram shows the
composition of a segment construct:
