Thus, the hex nu mber 0x4000 and the hex n umber of 0xC000 re present the same signal amplitude but in opposite directions, wh ere 0x4000 represents a po sitive signal whil e 0xC000 is a negative signal w[...]

VXI Technology, Inc. 14 SVM26 08 Introducti on In absence of a Trigger signal, the acquisition can be forced by setting a contro l bit, the FORCE bit. Forcing an acquisition on a chan nel only starts acq uisition on that channe l. Each channel has its own corresponding FORCE bit.
