INPUT:OFFSET

The INPut:OFFSet command sets the input threshold for a channel or group of channels, over which the input signal must cross to cause an interrupt event. This command sets the value in the 8-bit DAC to which the input signal is compared. It is important to note that the actual input offset value is affected by the INPut:RANGe command, as the response has been normalized to ±10 V range. The actual input offset for the allowable ranges are as follows:

 

Range

Entered Threshold

Actual Threshold

 

 

±10.0

x

 

1.0x

 

 

±100.0

x

 

10.0x

 

INPut:OFFSet <voltage_level>,<channel_list>

Where <voltage_level> ranges from -10.00

 

 

 

volts to +9.96 volts.

 

 

 

Where <channel_list> is the standard

 

 

 

channel list format supporting Channels 1

 

 

 

through 16.

 

 

 

 

 

EXAMPLES

 

 

 

 

INPut:RANGe 100,(@5:10)

 

Sets the input range for Channels 5 through

 

 

 

10 to ±100 V

INPut:OFFSet -5.0,(@5:10)

 

Sets the input offset for Channels 5 through

 

 

 

10 to -50 V

INP:OFFS? 9

 

Returns the normalized input offset of -50 V

-5.000

 

 

for Channel 9

INP:RANG 10,(@1:4)

 

Sets the input range for Channels 1 through

 

 

 

4 to ±10 V

INP:OFFS -5.0,(@1:4)

 

Sets the input offset for Channels 1 through

 

 

 

4 to -5 V

INP:OFFS? 3

 

Returns the normalized input offset of -5 V

-5.000

 

 

for Channel 3
