:CHANnel:TRANsducer:STATe

Command Syntax

:CHANnelN:TRANsducer:STATe {OFF | ON}

Where N identifies a specific channel and must be selected from {1:8}{A|B|C|D}. For example, CHANnel3C.

Description

Turns on and off compensation for an external transducer in the test setup. This allows FlexDCA to measure values and show vertical scaling as if the measurements were made before the transducer rather than at the input to the oscilloscope channel.

• Use :CHANnel:TRANsducer:GAIN to specify the transducer's gain.
• Use :CHANnel:TRANsducer:INVert to specify if the transducer inverts the signal.
• Use :CHANnel:TRANsducer:OFFSet to specify the transducer's offset.
• Use :CHANnel:TRANsducer:UNITs to specify the unit-of-measurement at the transducer's input.

The following table show the relationship between transducer input, gain, and offset measurement units and the oscilloscope's displayed vertical scale.

Transducer Compensation Units
