Query Syntax
:EMODules:AWGenerator{1:8}:FNAMe?
Query Response
"filename"
Description
Specifies the file name, path, and extension of a FlexDCA waveform file that you want to download to an Arbitrary Waveform Generator (AWG) extended module. To actually download the waveform file, use the :EMODules:AWGenerator:WTYPe
command with the FILE
argument. After downloading the file, use the :EMODules:AWGenerator:STATus
query to confirm that the AWG accepted the file and successfully updated.
Default User Folder
The default folder for storing waveform files is in %USER_DATA_DIR%\Waveforms
as shown in this picture. It is good practice to include a path substitution string with the filename. For example, %USER_DATA_DIR%\Waveforms\filename
.
File names must include a path when using the child :FNAMe
command. The :FNAMe
command is not affected by a Default Setup or Factory Preset.
Specifying a path using a path substitution string in the filename ensures that the file will be saved in (or loaded from) the standard user-data folder. Failure to use a path substitution string may result either in a file created in an parent folder or a file error.
Requires FlexDCA revision A.06.00 and above.
Example Command
