Determining the Input Threshold Level

Determining the Input Threshold Level

Note

Channels in <ch_list> must be input configured channels

To determine a channel’s input threshold level, use the command: INPut:THReshold:LEVel? (@<channel>)

Because the E1538 rounds <level> to the nearest multiple of 0.375, the returned value can be different from the value sent.

<channel> must specify a single input-configured channel.

INP:THR:LEV? returns a numeric value between -46 and +46. The C-SCPI type is int32.

To query the threshold level on the second channel at SCP position 4 send:

INP:THR:LEV? (@133)

query 2nd chan on SCP pos. 4

enter statement here

returns threshold value

Set Input Logic Sense Use INPut:POLarity NORMal INVerted,(@<ch_list>) to configure input channel logic sense. The operation is as follows:

INP:POL

NORM

input voltage greater than the threshold level sends a

 

 

value of 1

(one) to the algorithm channel specifier.

INP:POL

INV

input voltage greater than the threshold level sends a

 

 

value of 0

(zero) to the algorithm channel specifier.

To configure channels 40 to 43 to sense low input as logic 1

INP:POL INV,(@140:143)
