12 Channel Commands
:CHANnel<N>:ISIM:STATe
Command :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:STATe {OFF | PORT2 | PORT4}
The :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:STATe command turns InfiniiSim on or off and sets
whether 2 port or 4 port mode is being used (if it is turned on).
<N> An integer, 1 - 4.
Example This example turns on InfiniiSim for channel 1 and puts it in 2 port
mode.
myScope.WriteString ":CHANNEL1:ISIM:STATe PORT2"
Query :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:STATe?
The :CHANnel<N>:ISIM:STATe? query returns the current state of
InfiniiSim on the corresponding input channel.
Returned Format
[CHANnel<N>:ISIM:STATe] {OFF | PORT2 | PORT4}<NL>
Example This example puts the current InfiniiSim state for channel 1 in the string
variable, strMode. The program then prints the contents of the variable to
the computer's screen.
myScope.WriteString ":SYSTem:HEADer OFF"
myScope.WriteString ":CHANNEL1:ISIM:STATe?"
strMode = myScope.ReadString
Debug.Print strMode
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
