' GET_PREAMBLE - The preamble block contains all of the current
' WAVEFORM settings. It is returned in the form <preamble_block><NL>
' where <preamble_block> is:
' FORMAT : int16 -0=BYTE, 1 = WORD, 2 = ASCII.
' TYPE : int16 -0=NORMAL, 1 = PEAK DETECT, 2 = AVERAGE.
' POINTS : int32 - number of data points transferred.
' COUNT : int32 - 1 and is always 1.
' XINCREMENT : float64 - time difference between data points.
' XORIGIN : float64 - always the first data point in memory.
' XREFERENCE : int32 - specifies the data point associated with
' x-origin.
' YINCREMENT : float32 - voltage difference between data points.
' YORIGIN : float32 - value is the voltage at center screen.
' YREFERENCE : int32 - specifies the data point where y-origin
' occurs.
