2) The MAX and MIN arguments should not be used in a program message containing an
OFFSet command, since these values are evaluated during parsing, based on the current
value of the offset.
OFFSet <offset>
The offset command is used to set the DC offset of the output waveform. Note that the
amplitude and the offset are limited by the relation:
Peak Amplitude + |Offset| ≤ 5V
Arguments
Type: Numeric
Units: V, mV
Range: 10mV to 5V
Rounding: To 10mV
Command Type: Setting or Query
Setting
Syntax: OFFSet<ws><offset>[units]
OFFSet<ws>MINimum|MAXimum
Examples: OFFS 2.5
OFFS 2.5V
OFFS MAX
Query
Syntax: OFFSet?[<ws>MINimum|MAXimum]
Examples: OFFS?
OFFS? MAX
Response: NR2
Considerations:
1) The MAXimum offset is dependent on the amplitude.
2) The MAX and MIN arguments should not be used in a program message containing an
AMPLitude command, since these values are evaluated during parsing, based on the current
value of the amplitude.
FUNCtion
The function command is used to set the type of waveform to be generated by the instrument.
Command Type: Setting or Query
