APD Basic was the first iteration of the extended Basic language. It adds several special variables and commands to interact directly with the data on the P7001.
<nowiki>
LET PC = PA * A
</nowiki>
This line downloads the data array in memory location A of the DPO to the controller, multiplies each element with the content of variable A and uploads the result back to memory location C of the DPO. The result is automatically scaled to a standard oscilloscope factor. The units of the scale factor are also maintained. So in case the variable A is also an array of waveform elements the result unit will be changed to "VV" (Volts*Volts)
