reduced resolution waveform. The filtering frequency of the full resolution
waveform is not under your direct control. It is a function of the horizontal
and acquisition settings and the selected FilterVu frequency. The 3 dB cutoff
frequency for this filtering may be different for the LRL record and the thumbnail
record. The actual filter frequency applied to the acquired (LRL) and displayed
(thumbnail) waveforms are available in the waveform preamble:

When waveforms are sent to the instrument using the
from ISF files, the filtering frequency is obtained from the waveform preamble:

The filtering of reduced resolution waveforms is controlled using the
FILTERVu:FREQuency
on the instrument bandwidth and the horizontal settings (scale and record
length) and may be queried for the last acquired waveform, (as specified by the
DATa:SOUrce
command) using the
This query returns a comma separated list of available FilterVu frequencies in
decreasing order for the last acquired source waveform . For example, on a
100 MHz bandwidth instrument at a full resolution record length of 1 M points
and a horizontal scale of 20 microseconds per division, the query returns these
values which apply to the reduced resolution (displayed) waveform: 100000000,
75000000, 42000000, 21000000, 11000000, 5500000, and 2200000.
The low pass filter frequency in effect can be queried using the
