equivalent of the bus events in the other. Each bus command or data string
is separated by commas. Printable data are shown as ASCII characters
enclosed by quotation marks.
5.8.2 Absolute
This command displays memory locations in the active window as
Absolute locations (data stored at location 50 will have an address of 50).
In this manner, memory locations are numbered from 0 to 32767 and
correspond to the actual memory locations in the Analyzer488. This is the
default display format.
5.8.3 Relative
This command displays memory locations in the active window as
relative locations (data stored at location 50 could be at any address
depending on the reference). Locations are numbered relative to the
reference location which was set by the Set Reference command. Negative
addresses indicate events that have occurred prior to the reference location
and positive addresses indicate events occurring after the reference location.
The default reference location is set to the first data byte available in
the most recent record sequence.
5.8.4 Set Reference
This command sets the reference location to the current location of the
cursor in the active window.
When using the relative display format, this reference location will be
labeled '0'. All locations prior to the cursor location will be negative and all
locations after the cursor will be positive.
