Remarks
Use the TRACe:DELete[:NAME] command to delete traces from memory.
Use the TRACe:POINts? command to determine the number of points used by a specific trace name.
Each bank on the 34950A has its own memory (64K bytes each) for use in buffered output transfers. You can download up to 32 traces into each bank.
You can store up to 512,000 trace points per 34951A module.
For the 34950A, if you change the width of a bank (see CONFigure:DIGital:WIDTh command), all traces in memory are cleared.
A Factory Reset (*RST command), Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command), and Card Reset (SYSTem:CPON command) deletes the trace from memory and removes all trace name associations. In addition, storing the instrument state (*SAV command) will delete the trace from memory and remove all trace name associations.
Return Format
This command reads the trace names currently assigned and returns a comma-separated list. If the specified slot has no trace names assigned, a null string ( " " ) is returned
