RIGOL Programming Introduction
Programming Guide for DS1000E, DS1000D Series 1-6
Parameter Type
The commands contains 5 kinds of parameters, different parameters have different

Thereinto, <ncount> could be an integer between 0 and 32 (including 0 and
32).
3. Consecutive Real Number
The parameters could be any value within effective range and precision
permitting, for example:
:TRIGger:EDGE:SENSitivity <count>
Thereinto, <count> could be a real number between 0.1 and 1(including 0.1
and 1).
4. Discrete
The parameters can only be the cited value, for example:
:ACQuire:AVERages <count>
Thereinto, <count> could be 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256.
5. ASCII Character String
The parameter should a combination of ASCII character string, for example:
:TRIGger:MODE <mode>
Thereinto, <mode> could be “EDGE”, ”PULSe”, ”VIDEO”, ”SLOPe”, “PATTern”,
