QUERY SYNTAX
<trace> : PArameter_VAlue? [<parameter>,...,<parameter>]
<trace> : = {F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,F7,F8,TA,TB,TC,TD,
C1,C2,C3,C4}. TA through TD are for backward compatibility,
and are not returned by queries.

:
: When PAVA? Is used to query a Custom parameter, the
prefix is returned for consistency. However, the source for the
measurement is the one configured using the PACU command.
<parameter> : = See table of parameters.
Alternative forms of query for mask tests:
<trace> : PArameter_VAlue? <mask_test>, <mask>
<mask_test> : = {ALL_IN, SOME_IN, ALL_OUT, SOME_OUT}
<mask> : = {F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,F7,F8,TA,TB,TC,TD}
TA through TD are included for backward compatibility with
software designed for earlier LeCroy instruments. These four
mnemonics will not be returned in response to queries.
RESPONSE FORMAT
<trace> : PArameter_VAlue <parameter>,<value>,
<state> [,...,<parameter>,<value>,<state>]
<value> : = A decimal numeric value
<state> : = {OK, AV, PT, IV, NP, GT, LT, OF, UF, OU}

:
: If <parameter> is not specified, or is equal to ALL, all
standard voltage and time parameters are returned followed by
their values and states.
AVAILABILITY <trace> : {C3, C4} only available on four-channel oscilloscopes.
EXAMPLE (GPIB) The following instruction query reads the rise time of Trace B (TB):
CMD$=“F2:PAVA? RISE”: CALL
IBWRT(SCOPE%,CMD$):
CALL IBRD (SCOPE%,RD$): PRINT RD$
