This function specifies whether an input channel is to be enabled, its input coupling

type, voltage range, analog offset and bandwidth limit. Some of the arguments within

this function have model-specific values. Please consult the relevant section below

according to the model you have.

Applicability

All modes

Arguments

handle, the handle of the required device

channel, the channel to be configured. The values are:

PS6000_CHANNEL_A: Channel input

PS6000_CHANNEL_B: Channel input

PS6000_CHANNEL_C: Channel input

PS6000_CHANNEL_D: Channel input

enabled, whether or not to enable the channel. The values are:

TRUE: enable

FALSE: do not enable

type, the impedance and coupling type. The values supported are:

PicoScope 6402/6403/6404 (all model variants)

PS6000_AC, 1 megohm impedance, AC coupling. The

channel accepts input frequencies from about 1 hertz up to its

maximum -3 dB analog bandwidth.

PS6000_DC_1M, 1 megohm impedance, DC coupling. The

scope accepts all input frequencies from zero (DC) up to its

maximum -3 dB analog bandwidth.

PS6000_DC_50R, DC coupling, 50 ohm impedance. In this

mode the ±10 volt and ±20 volt input ranges are not

available.

PicoScope 6407

PS6000_DC_50R, DC coupling, 50 ohm impedance.
