12 Channel Commands
:CHANnel<N>:ISIM:DELay
Command :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:DElay {OFF | ON | TRIGger}
Cables and fixtures, in addition to changing the waveform's shape, delay
the signal in time. This can make it difficult to compare the simulated and
measured waveforms because as you turn InfiniiSim on and off, the
waveforms are not aligned in time. This may make one waveform or the
other shift entirely off screen, for example.
When applying transfer functions, use the :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:DELay
command to specify whether filter delay is removed or included:
OFF — No waveform shift is applied.
ON — The filter delay is included in the resultant waveform. This
selection shifts the simulated waveform in time so the two waveforms
are approximately aligned which aids in their comparison.
TRIGger — Applies the trigger's jitter error correction after the
de- embedding filter has been applied.
Consult the InfiniiSim User's Guide in the Manuals section of the GUI help
system for more information.
<N> An integer, 1-4.
Example This example applies the transfer function delay in the resultant
waveform.
myScope.WriteString ":CHANnel1:ISIM:DELay ON"
Query :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:DELay?
The :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:DELay? query returns the current state of the
transfer function delay feature on the corresponding input channel.
NOTE
This CHANnel command only applies if you have purchased the InfiniiSim software
application.
NOTE
You can specify differential and/or common mode channels using the following convention.
If you have differential or common mode channels enabled (using either the
:CHANnel<N>:DIFFerential or :CHANnel<N>:COMMonmode commands) then:
:CHANnel1 would refer to the Channel 1 - Channel 3 differential channel
:CHANnel2 would refer to the Channel 2 - Channel 4 differential channel
:CHANnel3 would refer to the Channel 1 + Channel 3 common mode channel
:CHANnel4 would refer to the Channel 2 + Channel 4 common mode channel
