Syntax
TRACe|DATA:DEFine EMEMory[,{<points>|<trace_name>}]
Arguments
<points>::=<NR1>
where <NR1> is the number of points for the waveform data in the edit memory 
that ranges from 2 to 65536 for AFG3021 and AFG3022, and 2 to 131072 for 
AFG3101, AFG3102, AFG3251, and AFG3252.
If the second parameter in the argument is a numerical value, the length of the edit 
memory will be the number of points specified by this number and each point will 
be initialized to the default value (8191).
<trace_name>::={SINusoid|SQUare|PULSe|RAMP|NOISe}
If the second parameter in the argument is specified by <trace_name>, the speci-
fied waveform data will be copied to the edit memory. The number of points for the 
specified waveform data is equal to the number of points for one period of current 
waveform data in the edit memory.
If the <points> and <trace_name> parameters in the argument are omitted, the edit 
memory will be initialized to the default number of points (1000) and value (8191).
Examples
DATA:DEFine EMEMory,1000
sets the length of the edit memory to 1000 points and resets the data points to the 
default value.
