Command Reference
WVCSV - Get .CSV File Command
DESCRIPTION
Saves a .CSV format waveform file from an outside source to a user-defined
memory location on the WaveStation. The number of data points In the file is
limited by your WaveStation model (16k for WaveStation 2000 and 512k for
WaveStation 3000).
SYNTAX
WaVeCSV
,WAVENM,CSVDATA,
:=
{M50 to M59} (WaveStation 2000)
{M36 to M59} (16k waveforms on WaveStation 3000)
{M60 to M67} (512k waveforms on WaveStation 3000)
List of Amplitude values (Volts) expressed in decimal format from
the .CSV file, using Amplitude as header. Values must be less than
the Voltage limit for your WaveStation model.
TIP: To avoid manually entering all the values in the .CSV file in the command, use a high-level
language such as C or LabView to generate the command automatically from a .CSV file saved on a
specific path (e.g., C:\Documents\WaveStation\3000\Wave1.csv). Go to teledynelecroy.com for
example LabView code.
EXAMPLE
If a .CSV file has the content:
Amplitude,0,0.0012,0.0023,0.0035,…
Then the final SCPI command transferred over USBTMC is:
WAVECSV M36,WAVENM,WAVE1,CSVLENG,137166,CSVDATA,Amplitude,0,
0.0012,0.0023,0.0035,…
