You can change the data/memory trace on the LCD by writing the new data into the Formatted data array/Formatted memory arrays.
When you write data into formatted data/memory array, you can choose either the ASCII or binary transfer format (see Data Transfer Format).
Using the ASCII Transfer Format to Write Formatted Data Arrays (write_a.htb) and Using the Binary Transfer Format to Write Formatted Data Arrays (write_b.htb) show sample programs that demonstrate how to write data into formatted data arrays. The sample program in Using the ASCII Transfer Format to Write Formatted Data Arrays (write_a.htb) uses the ASCII transfer format while the sample in Using the Binary Transfer Format to Write Formatted Data Arrays (write_b.htb) uses the binary transfer format. You can find the source files of these programs, named write_a.htb and write_b.htb, on the sample program disk.
Each of the sample programs holds the sweep on channel 1, retrieves the data from a specified file (a file saved measurement data using the :MMEM:STOR:FDAT command), and populates trace 1 for channel 1 with the retrieved data.
