:DIFF:DSTRacking
Command Syntax
:DIFF{1:8}{A|C}:DSTRacking {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.

Description
Turns on and off automatic differential tracking. The default setting is on.
- ON
- Couples changes to differential software delay (
:DIFF:TDELay) to both differential input channels A and B (or C and D). It also couples changes to a differential waveform's vertical scale (:DIFF:YSCale) or vertical offset (:DIFF:YOFFset) to the vertical scale or vertical offset of the differential waveform and both differential input waveforms. For example, if you set the differential waveform to 200 mV/division, each input waveform (A and B or C and D) will be set to 100 mV/division. You can not manually adjust the scaling for the two channels. - OFF
- Any software delay added to the differential waveform is applied to channel A with respect to channel B (or channel C with respect to channel D). Disables the coupling between the differential waveform's vertical scale and vertical offset and that of the two differential input waveforms. The vertical scale and vertical offset of each waveform (differential and two differential input waveforms) can be made independently of the other waveforms.
If you clear Scale Channels Automatically the linking of these controls are disabled.
