:CHANnel:ATTenuator:RATio
Command Syntax
:CHANnel{1:8}{A|B|C|D}:ATTenuator:RATio <ratio>
<ratio> is a double.
Where the required specifier {1:8}{A|B|C|D} identifies a channel by its module slot number and channel letter. For example, channel 3C (CHANnel3C).
The channel specifier will fail if it does not include a slot number. If instead the suffix's channel letter is missing, the command defaults to letter A. As a result, the best practice is to always explicitly specify the channel by including both the module slot number and channel letter.
Query Syntax
