VOLTage:RANGe:OFFSet
VOLTage:RANGe:OFFSet?
Sets or queries the voltage offset of the specified input amplifier. The offset
value is subtracted from the input signal which allows you to move the signal up
or down into the amplifier vertical range. A positive value removes positive DC
offset from the signal and a negative offset value removes negative DC offset. A
common use of offset is to subtract the DC component of a signal so you can
acquire the AC portion at higher vertical resolution. Measurement results do not
change when you change offset.
The range of permitted values and the smallest increment for offset depend on
the setting of the peak-to-peak range (VOLTage:RANGe:PTPeak) and on the
attached probe. An attached probe modifies the full-scale range by the attenua-
tion factor of the probe. For example, a 10X probe causes the 100 mV range to
become a 1 V range and the minimum and maximum offset values to change
from ±1 V to ±10 V.
