Command/Query
DESCRIPTION The DISPLAY command controls the display screen of the
oscilloscope. When remotely controlling the oscilloscope, and if you
do not need to use the display, it can be useful to switch off the
display via the DISPLAY OFF command. This improves
oscilloscope response time, since the waveform graphic generation
procedure is suppressed.
In addition, when the scope is in the DISPLAY OFF mode, certain
LEDs and the periodic backup of the scope settings are disabled to
avoid unnecessary interruptions.
The response to the DISPLAY? query indicates the display state of
the oscilloscope.
N N O O T T E E : : When you set the display to OFF, the screen does not
actually blank. Instead, the real-time clock and the message
field are continuously updated. but waveforms and associated
text are frozen.
