COMMAND REFERENCE

INPut<n>:COUPling

Syntax: INPut<n>:COUPling AC DC GROund

<n>

[1] 2 3 4

Query form: INPut<n>:COUPling?

<n>

[1] 2 3 4

Response: AC DC GRO

Description:

Selects the vertical input coupling of a specified <n> input channel. If AC is specified, the DC offset value is excluded. If DC is specified, the DC offset value is included. If GROund is specified, the AC value is grounded (zeroed).

After a *RST command, the coupling is DC.

Restrictions:

For the PM33x0B CombiScope instruments channel 3 is not applicable, and the input coupling of channel 4 (EXT TRIG) can only be set to AC or DC.

Example:

 

 

Send *RST

Resets the instrument (DC coupled).

Send CONFigure:AC (@2)

Configures for channel 2 AC-RMS.

Send SENSe:FUNCtion "XTIMe:VOLTage2"

Sets channel 2 ON.

Send READ:AC? (@2)

Reads AC-RMS on channel 2.

Read <AC-RMS +DC-offset voltage>

 

Send INPut2:COUPling AC

Couples true AC-RMS.

Send READ:AC? (@2)

Reads AC-RMS on channel 2.

Read <AC-RMS voltage>

 

 

Send INPut2:COUPling GROund

Couples to ground.

Send READ:AC? (@2)

Reads AC-RMS on channel 2.

Read <AC-RMS ground level voltage>
