Root Level Commands
:DIGitize
:DIGitize:NDISplay
:RUN
:STOP
Keysight M8131A 16/32 GSa/s Digitizer User's Guide
The Root Level commands control many of the basic operations of the
digitizer.
Command
:DIGitize
The command initializes the selected channels, then starts acquisition of
ADC samples into capture memory. When all waveforms are completely
acquired, the acquisition is stopped.
In Direct mode the captured ADC samples are displayed in the time and
frequency domain windows of the GUI. In DDC mode they are only
displayed in the frequency domain window.
When the digitizer receives this command, it initializes the selected
channels according to the current acquire and trigger settings. It sets the
Memory Capture in Progress bit of the Memory Capture Status
Subsystem and returns to the caller. When the capture is completed, the
Memory Capture in Progress bit is reset to 0. Before reading the data from
the capture memory using the :WAVeform:DATA query, the caller should
verify, that the Capture in Progress bit is 0.
Command
:DIGitize:NDISplay
Same as the :DIGitize command, but the GUI displays are not updated.
Command
:RUN
This command is equivalent to repetitively calling the :DIGitize command.
Command execution can be stopped with the :STOP command.
Command
:STOP
The command causes the digitizer to stop acquiring data into capture
memory. It can be used to abort a :DIGitize, :DIGitize:NDISplay or :RUN
command.
