[SENSe:]SWEep:OFFSet:POINts

[SENSe:]SWEep:OFFSet:POINts <count> MIN MAX sets the number of sweep offset points. <count> must be a negative number.

Comments This command is the same as SAMPle:PRETrigger:COUNt, except the sign on <count> is negative here, whereas it is positive for pretrigger count and is included for SCPI compatibility.

[SENSe:]SWEep:OFFSet:POINts?

[SENSe:]SWEep:OFFSet:POINts? [MIN MAX] returns the sweep offset

points.
