Query Syntax

:LTESt:ACQuire:STATe?

Query Response

{1 | 0}

Description

Enables acquisition limit testing. The actual test is started by placing FlexDCA in run mode (:ACQuire:RUN). You must use the :ACQuire:RUN command to start continuous sweeps and so begin the test. During the limit test, use the :MEASure:LTESt:ACQuire:COUNt? query to return the current count of patterns, samples, or waveforms. When the acquisition limit test completes, FlexDCA acquisition is automatically stopped (:ACQuire:STOP). Upon completion of the limit test, disable limit testing (:LTESt:ACQuire:STATe OFF).

Example Command Sequence

The following example shows how to create an acquisition limit test that runs until 100 waveforms have been acquired.

:ACQuire:SINGle  //  Stop waveform acquisition.

:LTESt:ACQuire:CTYPe WAVeforms  //  Create test based on acquisition to waveforms.
:LTESt:ACQuire:CTYPe:WAVeforms 100  //  Stop test after 100 waveforms acquired.
:LTESt:ACQuire:SWAVeform:CHAN1B:STATe MEMory  //  Save channel 1B to waveform memory.
:LTESt:ACQuire:SWAVeform:CHAN1B:WMEMory WMEMory2  //  Select waveform memory 2.
:LTESt:ACQuire:SIMage:STATe ON  //  Save screen image.
:LTESt:ACQuire:SIMage:INVert ON  //  Invert colors on  screen image.
:LTESt:ACQuire:SIMage:WINDow TIME1  //  Capture only waveform instead of entire display.
:LTESt:ACQuire:SIMage:FNAMe "C:\Users\me\Documents\Keysight\FlexDCA\Screen Images\my test.jpg"  //  Create this image file.
:LTESt:ACQuire:STATe ON  //  Turn limit test on.
:ACQuire:RUN  //  Start waveform acquisition.
*OPC?  //  Wait for test completion.
:LTESt:ACQuire:STATe OFF
