CH<x>:OFFSet
Sets or queries the offset, typically in volts, that is subtracted from the specified
input channel before it is acquired. The greater the offset, the lower on the
display the waveform appears. This is equivalent to setting Offset in the Vertical
menu.
Vertical
CH<x>:OFFSet <NR3>
CH<x>:OFFSet?
<x> specifies the input channel. Valid values are 1, 2, 3, and 4.
<NR3> is the specified offset value, typically in volts. The range depends on the
vertical scale setting and the probe attenuation factor. The offset ranges for a 1x
probe are listed in Table 2--30.
Table 2- 30: Offset Ranges using a 1x Probe
CH<x>:SCAle OFFSet range
1mV/div--9.95mV/div ±100 mV
10 mV/div -- 99.5 mV/div ±1V
100 mV/div -- 995 mV/div ±10 V
1 V/div -- 10 V/div ±100 V
CH1:OFFSET 0.5E+00
lowers the channel 1 displayed waveform by 0.5 volts.
CH1:OFFSET?
might return 5.0E-1, indicating that the current channel 1 offset is 0. 5 volts.
