Channel Commands
SCALe
is set to differential or common mode, or when OHM, REFLect, or GAIN units are selected,
the instrument will change scale to magnify scale. This command is used to set the magnify
range as well as the range. <N> represents the channel number and is an integer 1 to 4.
NOTE In Jitter Mode, channel scale and offset controls are disabled. Do not use this command in Jitter Mode. It
generates a “Settings conflict” error.
<range_value> Full-scale voltage of the specified channel number.
Example This example sets the full-scale range for channel 1 to 500 mV.
10 OUTPUT 707;":CHANNEL1:RANGE 500E-3"
Query :CHANnel<N>:RANGe?
The query returns the current full-scale vertical axis setting for the selected channel.
Returned Format [:CHANnel<N>:RANGe]<range value><NL>
Example This example places the current range value in the number variable, Setting.
10 OUTPUT 707;":SYSTEM:HEADER OFF” !Response headers off
20 OUTPUT 707;":CHANNEL1:RANGE?"
30 ENTER 707;Setting
SCALe
Command :CHANnel<N>:SCALe <scale_value>
This command sets the vertical scale, or units per division, of the selected channel. This com-
mand is the same as the front-panel channel scale. For TDR and TDT applications, when the
TDR stimulus is set to differential or common mode, the instrument will change scale to mag-
nify scale. This command is used to set the magnify scale as well as the scale. <N> represents
the channel number and is an integer 1 to 4.
NOTE In Jitter Mode, channel scale and offset controls are disabled. Do not use this command in Jitter Mode. It
generates a “Settings conflict” error.
<scale_value> Vertical scale of the channel in units per division.
Example This example sets the scale value for channel 1 to 500 mV.
10 OUTPUT 707;":CHANNEL1:SCALE 500E-3"
Query :CHANnel<N>:SCALe?
The query returns the current scale setting for the specified channel.
Returned Format [:CHANnel<N>:SCALe] <scale value><NL>
Example This example places the current scale value in the number variable, Setting.
