FMTU ForMaT Use
Classification: Format memory management
Command Syntax: FMTU
Query Syntax: FMTU?
Query Response: <location> or 0
Description: The FMTU command first checks the current contents of the
format buffer for errors. If no errors are found, it reconfigures
the signal generating hardware in accordance with the contents.
It does not redraw the previously displayed test image. In some
cases this may distort the old image.
The FMTU? query returns either a format memory location
<location> or zero. If the signal format currently being output
by the signal generating hardware matches that originally loaded
(using the FMTL command) or read (using the FMTR command)
from a format memory location, then the matching format memory
location <location> is returned. Otherwise, if the format contents
have been used to update the signal generating hardware since
either an FMTR or FMTL command has been issued, then FMTU?
query returns zero.
Other Required Cmds: None
Example: FMTU // Update hardware to current
// buffer contents
