:TIMebase:REFClock

(see page 798)

Command Syntax

:TIMebase:REFClock <value>

<value> ::= {{1 | ON} | {0 | OFF}

The :TIMebase:REFClock command enables or disables the 10 MHz REF

BNC located on the rear panel of the oscilloscope.

The 10 MHz REF BNC can be used as an input for the oscilloscope's

reference clock (instead of the internal 10 MHz reference), or it can be

used to output the internal 10 MHz reference clock when synchronizing

multiple instruments (see ":ACQuire:RSIGnal" on page 201).

The :TIMebase:REFClock ON command enables the 10 MHz REF BNC and

sets the reference signal mode to IN. The :TIMebase:REFClock OFF

command disables the 10 MHz REF BNC (the same as setting the reference

signal mode to OFF).

Query Syntax

:TIMebase:REFClock?

The :TIMebase:REFClock? query returns the current state of the 10 MHz

reference signal mode. A "1" indicates that the 10 MHz REF input is

enabled (on), and a "0" indicates that either the 10 MHz REF BNC is

disabled (off) or that it is set as an output (by the :ACQuire:RSIGnal

command).

Return Format

<value> ::= {0 | 1}
