Overview
This section describes how to process the E5071C's internal data. You can
use these internal data arrays: corrected data arrays, corrected memory
arrays, formatted data arrays, formatted memory arrays, and stimulus
data arrays. For more information on the internal data arrays, see Internal
Data Processing.
To read/write a formatted data array, formatted memory array, corrected
data array, or corrected memory array use the following objects:
SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.DATA.FDATa
•
SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.DATA.FMEMory
•
SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.DATA.SDATa
•
SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.DATA.SMEMory
•
To read a stimulus data array, use the following objects:
SCPI.SENSe(Ch).FREQuency.DATA
•
The E5071C VBA allows you to deal with multiple pieces of data through
variables of Variant type. Variant variables can contain any type of data,
allowing you to deal with array data without being aware of the number of
elements. For example, a formatted data array that includes 5
measurement points is stored as shown in the following figure. Note that a
formatted data array always contains 2 data items per measurement point,
whichever data format is used. For more information on contained data,
see Internal Data Processing. you can find a table that describes the
relationship between contained data items and data formats.
