FORMat:BORDer {NORMal|SWAPped}
FORMat:BORDer?
Used for binary block transfers only. Select the byte order for binary transfers in
the block mode using the DATA:DAC command. The default is NORM. The :BORD?
query returns "NORM" or "SWAP".
– In NORM byte order (default), the most-significant byte (MSB) of each data
– In SWAP byte order, the least-significant byte (LSB) of each data point is
– The function generator represents binary data as signed 16-bit integers, which
DATA:COPY <destination arb name> [,VOLATILE]
Copy the waveform from volatile memory to the specified name in
non-volatile memory. The source for the copy is always "volatile". You cannot copy
from any other source and you cannot copy to "volatile".
– The arb name may contain up to 12 characters. The first character must be a
