the :CHANnel<n>:OFFSet command. 
Return 
Format 
The query returns the trigger level in scientific notation. 
Example 
:TRIGger:VIDeo:LEVel 0.16    /*Sets the trigger level to 160 mV.*/ 
:TRIGger:VIDeo:LEVel? /*The query returns 1.600000E-1.*/

Remarks    The parameter "<pch1> to <pch2>" sets the patterns of the analog channels 
"CH1 to CH2". The parameter "<pla0> to <pla15>" sets the patterns of the digital 
channels "D0 to D15". 
  In the parameter range, H indicates high level (higher than the threshold level of 
the channel), L indicates low level (lower than the threshold level of the channel), 
and X indicates omitting the channel (This channel is not used as a part of the 
pattern. When all the channels are set to X, the oscilloscope will not trigger.) R 
indicates rising edge, and F indicates falling edge. 
  Only one edge (rising or falling) can be specified in the pattern. If one edge item is 
currently defined and then another edge item is defined in another channel in the 
pattern, then a prompt message "Invalid input" is displayed. Then, the latter 
defined edge item will be replaced by X. 
Return 
Format 
The query returns the currently set pattern of all the channels. The channels are 
separated by commas.
