INPut:POLarity

Purpose Sets the input polarity for one or more channels

Type Setting

Command Syntax INPu t:POLarity <polarity>,<channel_list>

Command Parameters <polarity> = NORMal | INVert

<channel_list> = standard channel list syntax supporting channels 1 to 16

*RST Value NORMal for all channels

Query Syntax INPut:POLarity? <channel>

Query Parameters <channel> = 1 to 16

Query Response ASCII string = NORM | INV

Description The INPut:POLarity command selects the input polarity for one or more channels.

When a channel is programmed for normal polarity, an interrupt will occur when the

input voltage is greater than the programmed input offset for the channel. The invert

polarity will cause an interrupt when the input voltage is less than the programmed

input offset for the channel.

Examples Command / Query Response (Description)

INP:POL INV,(@5:12) (Inverts the input polarity for Channels 5 - 12)

INP:POL? 6 INV (Indicates the polarity for Channel 6 is inverted)
