RANGe
RANGe
command/query
The :CHANNEL
<
N
>
:RANGE
command
defines the full scale vertical
axis
of the
selected channel.
The
RANGE
for channels
1
and
4 can be set
to
any value from 40
mV
to 40
V,
when using
1:1
probe attenuation.
The
RANGE
for
channels 2 and 3 can
be
set to any value
from 800
mV
to
4.0
V,
when using
1:1
probe attenuation.
If the probe attenuation
is
changed, the range value
is
multiplied by
the probe attenuation factor.
The
RANGE
query returns the
current
range setting for the
specified
channel.
