TRA/TRB Syntax

The TRA and TRB commands provide a method for transferring trace

data to or from a computer. The available data formats are parameter

(P) format, binary (B) format, A-block format, I-block format, or

measurement units (M) format. Transfers to the computer must be

completed within 30 seconds or the transfer will be aborted. For

instructions on transferring data and more examples, refer to Chapter

5, "Programming."

Option 007, Fast Digitized Time Domain, is necessary to obtain trace

data with sweep times <30 ms. Without Option 007, sweep times <30

ms are not digitized. If a sweep time <30 ms is selected and Option 007

is not installed, the trace data returned is the last trace data taken with

a sweep time ≥30 ms.

msb and lsb length represents the length of the trace as two 8-bit bytes.
