TDS200/1000/2000 Series Oscilloscope Programmer Manual
WFMPre:YZEro
For all model and firmware combinations except the TDS210 or
TDS220 oscilloscope (firmware below V 2.00) with a TDS2CMA
communications module, YZEro is a value, expressed in YUNits,
used to convert waveform record values to YUNit values using the
following formula (where dl is digitizer levels):
value_in_YUNits =
((curve_in_dl ā YOFF_in_dl) * YMUlt) + YZERO_in_YUNits
YZEro is used when calculating cursor readouts.
The set form of this command affects the reference waveform
specified by DATA:DESTination.
The query form of this command returns a value for the waveform
specified by DATA:SOUrce. If that waveform is not active or
displayed, the query fails and the oscilloscope generates an
execution error with event code 2244 (waveform requested is not
active).
NOTE. For the TDS210 or TDS220 oscilloscope (firmware below
V 2.00) with a TDS2CMA communications module, the set form is
ignored. The query always returns zero.
