[:SOURce]:VOLTage[1][:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPLitude]
Form Set & Query
Parameter Numeric
Parameter suffix
V
with engineering prefixes.
Value coupling
Range coupling With Offset, see page 71
*RST value 1.00 V
Specified limits 100 mVpp to 10.0 Vpp (values are valid from 50
Ω
into 50
Ω
)
Description Use this command to program the amplitude voltage of the output signal.
Note that to set the output levels in terms of voltage, you first have to
execute the
[:SOURce]:HOLD VOLTage
command to enable the
[:SOURce]:VOLTage
subsystem.
The available voltage range is limited by the combination of:
• Specified current limits
• Actual output impedance setting
:OUTPut:IMPedance
• Actual expected load impedance setting:
:OUTput:IMPedance:EXTernal
Example To set the amplitude voltage:
High = Offset +

2
Low = Offset –

:HOLD VOLT
:VOLT 5V
