Waveform:source - Agilent Technologies InfiniiVision 5000 Series Programmer's Manual

:WAVeform:SOURce

Command Syntax
:WAVeform:SOURce <source>
<source> ::= {CHANnel<n> | FUNCtion | MATH | SBUS}
<n> ::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4} for the four channel oscilloscope models
<n> ::= {1 | 2} for the two channel oscilloscope models
The :WAVeform:SOURce command selects the analog channel, function, or
serial decode bus to be used as the source for the :WAVeform commands.
Function capabilities include add, subtract, multiply; integrate,
differentiate, and FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) operations.
When the :WAVeform:SOURce is the serial decode bus (SBUS), ASCii is the
only waveform format allowed.
Query Syntax
:WAVeform:SOURce?
The :WAVeform:SOURce? query returns the currently selected source for
the WAVeform commands.
MATH is an alias for FUNCtion. The :WAVeform:SOURce? query returns FUNC if the source
N O T E
is FUNCtion or MATH.
Return Format
<source><NL>
<source> ::= {CHAN<n> | FUNC | SBUS}
<n> ::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4} for the four channel oscilloscope models
<n> ::= {1 | 2} for the two channel oscilloscope models
