:CHANnel:UNAMe
Command Syntax
:CHANnel{1:8}{A|B|C|D}:UNAMe <string>
Where the required specifier {1:8}{A|B|C|D}
identifies a channel by its module slot number and channel letter. For example, channel 3C (CHANnel3C
).
The channel specifier will fail if it does not include a slot number. If instead the suffix's channel letter is missing, the command defaults to letter A
. As a result, the best practice is to always explicitly specify the channel by including both the module slot number and channel letter.
Query Syntax
:CHANnel{1:8}{A|B|C|D}:UNAMe?
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 channel 2A'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:
:CMODe:UNAMe
:DIFF:UNAMe
:EMEMory:UNAMe
:FUNCtion:UNAMe
:TDR:DUT:DIFFerential:NPORt:UNAMe
:TDR:DUT:DIFFerential:PPORt:UNAMe
:TDR:DUT:DIFFerential:SIGNal:UNAMe
:TRACe:UNAMe
:WMEMory:UNAMe
Requires FlexDCA revision A.03.00 and above.
