•TRIGger - allows access to the oscilloscope’s trigger functions.
•WAVeform - used to transfer waveform data from the oscilloscope to a
controller.
Program Examples
The program examples in the following chapters and chapter 36,
"Programming Examples," were written on an HP 9000 Series 200/300
controller using the HP BASIC 6.2 language. The programs always assume a
generic address for the 1660-series logic analyzers of XXX.
In the examples, you should pay special attention to the ways in which the
command and/or query can be sent. Keywords can be sent using either the
long form or short form (if one exists for that word). With the exception of
some string parameters, the parser is not case-sensitive. Uppercase and
lowercase letters may be mixed freely. System commands like HEADer and
LONGform allow you to dictate what forms the responses take, but they have
no affect on how you must structure your commands and queries.
Example The following commands all set the Timing Waveform Delay to 100 ms.
Keywords in long form, numbers using the decimal format.
OUTPUT XXX;": MACHINE1:TWA VEFORM:DELAY .1"
Keywords in short form, numbers using an exponential format.
OUTPUT XXX;": MACH1:TWAV:D EL 1E-1"
Keywords in short form using lowercase letters, numbers using a suffix.
OUTPUT XXX;": mach1:twav:d el 100ms"
In these examples, the colon shown as the first character of the command is
optional on the 1660-series logic analyzers. The space between DELay and the
argument is required.
