Query Syntax

:CMODe{1:8}{A|C}:STATus?

Where the required specifier {1:8}{A|C} identifies the common-mode channel by its module slot and channel letter. For example, the common-mode waveform of channels 1A and 1B would be identified as 1A.

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 Response

{AVA | UNAV}

Description

Queries the availability of a common-mode waveform for use. A common-mode waveform becomes available (AVA) when the following is true:

  • An associated multi-channel module is installed or extended module is configured, and
  • The common-mode channel is selected in the Channel Setup dialog (Use the :TDR:STIMulus:CHANnel:TYPe command).

Available common-mode channels are shown in the Signals Palette. An available common-mode channel's waveform may or may not be displayed. A common-mode channel is unavailable (UNAV) if the common-mode channel is not selected in the Channel Setup dialog.

Use the :CMODe:DISPlay command query to determine if a channel waveform is displayed.

Requires TDR/TDT mode. Requires FlexDCA revision A.04.00 and above.
