DISPLAY
PERSIST_SAT, PESA
Command/Query
DESCRIPTION
The PERSIST_SAT command sets the level at which the color
spectrum of the persistence display is saturated. The level is
specified in terms of percentage (PCT) of the total persistence data
map population. A level of 100 PCT corresponds to the color
spectrum being spread across the entire depth of the persistence
data map. At lower values, the spectrum will saturate (brightest
value) at the specified percentage value. The unit PCT is optional.
The response to the PERSIST_SAT? query indicates the saturation
level of the persistence data maps.
COMMAND SYNTAX
PErsist_SAt <trace>,<value> [<trace>,<value>]
<trace> : = {C1,C2,C3,C4,F1,F2,F3,F4,F5,F6,
F7,F8,TA,TB,TC,TD}. TA through TD are for compatibility
with existing software with earlier instruments. These four
mnemonics are not returned by queries.
<value> : = 0 to 100 PCT
Note: The unit PCT is optional.
QUERY SYNTAX
PErsist_SAt?
RESPONSE FORMAT
PErsist_SAt <trace>,<value>
EXAMPLE (GPIB) The following instruction sets the saturation level of the persistence
data map for channel 3 to be 60 %; that is, 60 % of the data points
will be displayed with the color spectrum, with the remaining 40 %
saturated in the brightest color:
