4.13.4.4 Line Draw


:ARBitrary:DRAW <start address>,<end address>


This command is used to generate a straight line between two points in the arbitrary waveform memory.

Arguments
Type:

Numeric.

Range:

1 to 400,000

Rounding:

to integer value

Command Type: Setting only
Setting
Syntax:

:ARBitrary:DRAW<ws><start address>,<end address>

Example:

:ARB:DRAW 1,1000

Considerations:

1) The value of the data at the start and end points must first be set by the user, using the

:ARB:DATA command. For example, suppose a line needs to be drawn from address 1000 to 2000
with data point values 4000 and 8191 respectively like below:


To do this,
1. Set address to 1000 by sending ARB:ADDR 1000
2. Set data to 4000 by sending ARB:DATA 4000
3. Set address to 4000 by sending ARB:ADDR 4000
4. Set data to 8191 by sending ARB:DATA 8191
5. Then, use ARB:DRAW 1000,4000 to get the above line.

2) The range of the straight line cannot overlap with protected memory.

3) The end address must be greater than the start address.


4.13.4.5 Clear


:ARBitrary:CLEar <start address>,<end address>

This command is used to clear all or a portion of waveform memory. The memory is the set to the value zero.

Arguments
Type:

Numeric.

Numeric Range: 1 to 400,000
Rounding:

to integer value

Command Type: Setting only.
Setting
Syntax:

:ARBitrary:CLEar<ws><start address>, <end address>

Examples:

:ARB:CLE 1,1000

Considerations:


1) The clear range cannot overlap with protected memory.
