Expression Data
You must enclose expression program
data in parenthesis (). Three possibilities
of expression data are as follows:
<numeric expression data>
<parameter list>
<channel list>
An example of <numeric expression data> is:
(X – 10.7E6) This subtracts a 10.7 MHz
intermediate frequency from the mea-
sured result.
An example of <parameter list> is: (5,0.02)
This is a list of two parameters; the
first one is 5 and the second one 0.02.
An example of <channel list> is: (@3),(@1)
This specifies channel 3 as the main
channel and channel 1 as the second
channel.
