:INSTrument:DACMode[?]
Command :INSTrument:DACMode SINGle|DUAL|FOUR|MARKer|DCMarker
Query :INSTrument:DACMode?
Parameters SINGle|DUAL|FOUR|MARKer|DCMarker
• SINGle – Channel 1 can generate a signal
• DUAL – Channels 1 and 2 can generate a signal, channels 3 and 4 are
unused
• FOUR – Channels 1, 2, 3, and 4 can generate a signal
• MARKer – Channel 1 with two markers output on channel 2 and 3
• DCMarker – Dual channel with marker: Channels 1 and 2 can generate
a signal. Channel 1 has two markers output on channel 3 and 4.
Channel 2 can generate signals without markers.
Parameter Suffix None
Description This command sets the operation mode of the DAC. The value of the
operation mode determines, to which channels waveforms can be
transferred and the format of the waveform data. In operation mode
SINGle, DUAL, or FOUR the data consists of 1-byte waveform samples
only. In operation mode MARKer or DCMarker the data loaded to channel
1 consists of interleaved 1-byte waveform and 1-byte marker samples
