Buffer
SCPI programming
Commands associated with buffer operation are listed in Table 8-1. The TRACe commands
are used to store and recall readings in the buffer. The FORMat:ELEMents command is used to
specify which data elements to include in the response message for TRACe:DATA? (which is
the command to read the buffer). The CALCulate3 commands are used to obtain statistics from
the buffer data.
NOTE
The Model 6514 uses IEEE-754 floating point format for statistics calculations.
A) TRACe:FREE?
Two values, separated by commas, are returned. The first value indicates how many bytes of
memory are available, and the second value indicates how many bytes are reserved to store
readings.

F
:CALCulate3
CALCulate3 Subsystem:
:FORMat <name>

SDEViation or PKPK.
MEAN
G
:DATA?
Read the selected buffer statistic.
H
Note: SYSTem:PRESet and *RST have no effect on :TRACe commands. The listed defaults are power-on defaults.
