SOURce:WAVeform:PURGe?
SOURce:WAVeform:PURGe
<KEY>
The command is used to delete all waveform files from local hard disk, which is split into two
partitions D:\ and D:\. To delete all waveform files on hard disk, two steps are necessary. The
instrument generates a pseudo random number which is the key necessary for deleting the *.wv
files.
Example:
WAV:PURG?
'queries the key necessary for deleting the *.wv files.
Response:
<key>
WAV:PURG <KEY>
'deletes all *.wv files from hard disk.

[SOURce:]WAVeform:SELect
<waveform filename>
The command selects the waveform file. If the file is not on the default path, the path must be
specified at the same time. If no file of the specified name exists, it is created. The file extension
may be omitted. Only files with the file extension
*.wv
will be created or loaded.
This command triggers an event and therefore has no *RST value and no query form.
Example:
WAV:SEL "D:\user\sinus25kMHz.wv"
'selects waveform file 'sinus25kHz.wv' from the d:\user directory and loads it.
*RST value
