data returned each time is the data in one area in the internal memory. Each of
the data returned contains the TMC data description header (WORD or BYTE
format) and the waveform data from two adjacent areas are continuous.
The figure below shows the waveform data read (in BYTE format). First, select
"View as hexadecimal only" in the dropdown list at the right side. At this point, the
waveform data read is displayed in hexadecimal form with the first 11 bytes being
the TMC data description header and the others starting from the 12
th
byte
(namely 8E) being the waveform data. Users can convert the waveform data read
to the voltage value of each waveform point using (0x8E - YORigin -
YREFerence) x YINCrement.

Syntax
:WAVeform:XINCrement?
Description Query the time difference between two neighboring points of the specified channel source
in the X direction.
Explanation The returned value is related to the current data reading mode:
In the NORMal mode, XINCrement = TimeScale/100.
In the RAW mode, XINCrement = 1/SampleRate.
In MAX mode, XINCrement = TimeScale/100 when the instrument is in running
status; XINCrement = 1/SampleRate when the instrument is in stop status.
The unit is related to the current channel source:
When the channel source is CHANnel1 or CHANnel2, the unit is s. When the channel
source is MATH and the operation type is FFT, the unit is Hz.
Return
Format
The query returns the XINCrement in scientific notation.
Example :WAVeform:XINCrement? /*The query returns 1.000000e-08*/
