Offset Adjust (Remote Command Only)
This remote command does not work at all like the related front panel keys. This command lets you
advance the phase of the frame trigger by the amount you specify.
It does not change the period of the trigger waveform. If the command is sent multiple times, it advances
the phase of the frame trigger an additional amount each time it is sent. Negative numbers are permitted.

The same offset is used in the Gate Source selection of the period timer.

Note also that Offset is used only when the sync source is set to OFF,
otherwise delay is used, see section
An increase in the "offset" parameter, either from the knob or the SCPI adjust
command, serves to delay the timing of the trigger event.
The front panel interface (for example, the knob) and the :TRIG:FRAM:OFFS
command adjust the accumulated offset, which is shown on the active
function display. However, the actual amount sent to the hardware is the delta
value, that is, the current offset value minus the previous offset value.
When the SCPI command is sent the value shown on the key (and the Active
Function, if this happens to be the active function) is updated by increasing it
(or decreasing it if the value sent is negative) by the amount specified in the
SCPI command.
This is a "command only" SCPI command, with no query.
The invalid data indicator turns on when the offset is changed, until the next
sweep/measurement completes.
The same offset is used in the Gate Source selection of the period timer.
