CONFigure:CHANnel<Ch>[:STATe] <Boolean>
Creates or deletes channel no. <Ch> and selects it as the active channel.
CONFigure:CHANnel<Ch>:NAME defines the channel name.
A channel created with CONFigure:CHANnel<Ch>[:STATe] ON can be configured but has no
trace assigned so that no measurement can be initiated. Use CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SDEFine
"<Trace_name>,"<Parameter>" to create a new channel and a new trace.
In remote control it is possible to remove all channels. This is in contrast to manual control where at least
one channel with one diagram area and one trace must be available.
Number of the channel to be created or deleted.
ON - Create channel no. <Ch>. If the channel no. <Ch> exists already, it is not
modified but selected as the active channel
OFF - Delete channel no. <Ch>.
ON for channel no. 1 (created on *RST), OFF for all other channels.
Device-specific, command or query.
See CONFigure:CHANnel<Ch>:CATalog?
CONFigure:TRACe<Trc>:CATalog?

Trace number. This suffix is ignored; the command returns a list of all traces.
String with comma-separated list of trace numbers and names, see example
below. If all traces have been deleted the response is an empty string ("").

*RST; :CALC2:PAR:SDEF 'Ch2Trc2', 'S11'
Create channel 2 and a new trace named Ch2Trc2.
CONF:TRAC:CAT?

the response is '1,TRC1,2,Ch2Trc2'.
CONF:TRAC:NAME:ID? 'Ch2Trc2'
Query the trace number for the trace named "Ch2Trc2". The response is 2.
CONF:TRAC2:NAME?
Query the trace name for trace no. 2. The response is 'Ch2Trc2'.
CONF:TRAC:CHAN:NAME? 'Ch2Trc2'
