Command Syntax

:TDR:STIMulus:CHANnel{N}:TYPe {SENDed | DIFFerential | CMODe}

{N} identifies a specific channel and must be selected from {1:8}{A|B|C|D}. For example, 2A. For differential channels, the alpha portion of the identifier to select from is {A|C}. For example, 1A but not 1B.

Query Syntax

:TDR:STIMulus:CHANnel{N}:TYPe?

Description

Configures the direction of the TDR stimulus step according to the following arguments:

DIFFerential
When the TDR stimulus mode is differential, the TDR steps (+ and –) for the selected channel have opposite polarity. Use the :TDR:STImulus:CHANnel:POLarity command to select the polarity of the individual channels.
CMODe
When the TDR stimulus mode is differential, the TDR steps (+ and –) for the selected channel have the same polarity. Use the :TDR:STImulus:CHANnel:POLarity command to select the polarity of the channels.
SENDed
When the TDR stimulus mode is single-ended, the TDR step is positive going by default. If needed, use the :TDR:STImulus:CHANnel:POLarity command to change the step to negative. This is the only selection and is the value return by the query.
