SLAC uses a number of different scopes from different vendors. The more modern scopes, like the Tektronix TDS3000 support GPIB commands which return a "preamble" with the waveform data. This preamble contains, among other things, scaling information needed for proper display. Other, older scopes, require that each tidbit of information be requested individually. Hellooooo Ron - We have pretty exhaustive support for the TDS3xxx series (contact Nick DiMonte - [email protected]), but I don't know off hand how it handles this. The GUI, of course, takes advantage of all the neat features of medm. Ned PS: Where is our "EPICS Community Device Support Database" where one can query for such support?
