:DIFF:UNAMe

:DIFF General Commands

Command Syntax

:DIFFN:UNAMe <string>

Where N identifies a specific differential waveform in the form "<connection1-8>_<ch1|ch3|ch5|ch7>". With connection 1, the connection number part (that is, "1_") is optional, and you can simply use the channel number "<ch1|ch3|ch5|ch7>". When two channels are paired to create a differential waveform and a common-mode waveform, the odd-numbered channel is used when specifying the waveform. For example, connection 5 differential waveform 3 (from the pairing of channels 3 and 4) is DIFF5_3.

Query Syntax

:DIFFN:UNAMe?

Description

Assigns a custom user name to a differential 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 3, Diff Output" to differential waveform 2_1. 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:
