Description

Assigns a custom user name to a channel waveform. User names are helpful because they identify what a waveform represents rather than the oscilloscope's input channel. For example, you could assign user name "DUT 18, Lane 4" to connection 1 channel 2's waveform. User names can be 25 characters or less and are displayed on the screen and on screen captures. To remove a custom user name, re-create it using an empty string.

Custom user names can by created for other waveforms using the following commands:
