Command Syntax

:DIFF{1:8}{A|C}:DMODe {ON | OFF | 1 | 0}

Where the required specifier {1:8}{A|C} identifies the differential channel by its module slot and channel letter. For example, the differential waveform of channels 1A and 1B would be identified as :DIFF1A.

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

:DIFF{1:8}{A|C}:DMODe?

Query Response

{1 | 0}

Description

Turns on or off the differential function on two channels. Notice that the module's slot number, 1 or 3, is included in the :DIFF subsystem command. Use the DISPlay command to display an enabled differential waveform.

Use of an *OPC? query to pause program execution while waiting for this command to execute.
