Mx+B Scaling Commands

CALCulate
:SCALe:GAIN <”v >[,(@<xt		>)]
:SCALe:GAIN? [(@<x	>)]

Set the gain (“M”) for scaled readings on the specified channels. The maximum gain allowed is ±1E+15. The default is M=1.

The :GAIN? query returns the gain value on the specified channels.

CALCulate
:SCALe:OFFSet <““ >[,(@<xt		>)]
:SCALe:OFFSet? [(@<x	>)]

Set the offset (“B”) for scaled readings on the specified channels. The maximum offset allowed is ±1E+15. The default is B=0.

The :OFFS? query returns the offset value on the specified channels.

CALCulate
:SCALe:UNIT <zyt”	>[,(@<x	>)]
:SCALe:UNIT? [(@<x	>)]		5
Specify the custom label (e.g., RPM, PSI) for scaled measurements on

the specified channels. You can specify a custom label with up to three characters. You can use letters (A-Z), numbers (0-9), an underscore ( _ ), or the “#” character which displays a degree symbol ( ° ) on the front panel (displayed as a blank space in an output string from the remote interface). The first character must be a letter or the “#” character (the “#” character is allowed only as the leftmost character in the label). The remaining two characters can be letters, numbers, or an underscore.

The following command shows how to add a custom label.
