Programs the oscilloscope calibration option hardware, if installed. The instrument
settings are determined by this command’s parameter. Once in SCOPE mode, use the
OUT command to program new output.
OPER, STBY, *OPC, *OPC?, and *WAI all operate as described in Chapter 6. The state
of the oscilloscope’s output while in SCOPE mode is reflected by the bit in the ISR that
is assigned to SETTLED.
The FUNC? query returns SDCV, SACV, LEVSINE, MARKER, EDGE, and WAVEGEN for
the corresponding oscilloscope modes.
Parameters: OFF Turns the oscilloscope hardware off. Programs 0 V,
0 Hz, output at the NORMAL terminals, standby.
VOLT Oscilloscope ac and dc voltage mode.
Programs 20 mV p-p, 1 kHz, output at the
SCOPE BNC, output impedance 1 MΩ, standby if
from OFF or previously in standby.
EDGE Oscilloscope Edge mode. Programs 25 mV peak-to-
peak, 1 MHz, output at the SCOPE BNC, standby if
from OFF or previously in standby.
LEVSINE Oscilloscope-leveled sine mode. Programs 30 mV
p-p, 50 kHz, output at the SCOPE BNC,
standby if from OFF or previously in standby.
MARKER Oscilloscope Marker mode. Programs the period to
1 ms, output at the SCOPE BNC, standby if from
OFF or previously in standby.
WAVEGEN Oscilloscope Wavegen mode. Programs 20 mV
p-p, square wave, 1 kHz, no offset, output
impedance 1 MΩ, standby if from OFF or
previously in standby.
Example: SCOPE VOLT; OUT -2 V, 0 Hz (dc voltage, -2 V)
SCOPE VOLT; OUT 4 V, 1 kHz (ac voltage, 4 V peak-to-
peak, 1 kHz.)
SCOPE EDGE; OUT 0.5 V, 5 kHz (Edge, 0.5 V p-p,
5 kHz.)
SCOPE LEVSINE; OUT 1 V, 20 kHz (Leveled sine wave, 2 V
p-p, 20 kHz.)
SCOPE MARKER; OUT 2 MS (Marker, period of 2 ms.)
SCOPE WAVEGEN; OUT 1 V, 1 kHz (Wave Generator, 1 V
p-p, 1 kHz.)
