:DISPlay Commands
:DISPlay:ANNotation:TEXT
Command Syntax
:DISPlay:ANNotation:TEXT <string>
<string> ::= quoted ASCII string (up to 254 characters)
The :DISPlay:ANNotation:TEXT command specifies the annotation string.
The annotation string can contain as many characters as will fit in the
Edit Annotation box on the oscilloscope's screen, up to 254 characters.
You can include a carriage return in the annotation string using the
characters "\n". Note that this is not a new line character but the actual "\
" (backslash) and "n" characters in the string. Carriage returns lessen the
number of characters available for the annotation string.
Use :DISPlay:ANNotation:TEXT "" to remotely clear the annotation text.
(Two sets of quote marks without a space between them creates a NULL
string.)
Query Syntax
:DISPlay:ANNotation:TEXT?
The :DISPlay:ANNotation:TEXT? query returns the specified annotation
text.
When carriage returns are present in the annotation text, they are
returned as the actual carriage return character (ASCII 0x0D).
Return Format
<string><NL>
<string> ::= quoted ASCII string
