E-3
To test the query command a dummy file is required which the instrument will generate.
Only the file name has to be entered, the file extension may be omitted. Waveform data is stored
only in files with the specific file extensions *.wv. If this file extension is missing, the instrument will
append it.
This command triggers an event and therefore has no *RST value and no query form.
Example:
WAV:DATA 'TEST1.WV',#3767<binary data block>
'writes the block data to file 'test1.wv'.
*RST value
