Command/Query

DESCRIPTION

The OFFSET command allows adjustment of the

vertical offset of the specified input channel. The

maximum ranges depend on the fixed sensitivity

setting.

If an out-of-range value is entered, the oscilloscope

is set to the closest possible value and the VAB bit

(bit 2) in the STB register is set.

The OFFSET? query returns the offset value of the

specified channel.
