:CHANnel<n>:TCAL
Syntax
:CHANnel<n>:TCAL <time>
:CHANnel<n>:TCAL?
Description
Set or query the delay calibration time of the specified analog channel. The default unit is s.
Parameter
Name Type Range Default
<n> Discrete {1|2} --
<time> Real -200ns to 200ns 0s
Note: When the horizontal timebase is greater than or equal to 10us, the delay calibration time cannot be adjusted.
Explanation
When you use an oscilloscope for actual measurement, the transmission delay of the probe cable may
bring relatively greater error (zero offset). Zero offset is defined as the offset of the crossing point of the
waveform and trigger level line relative to the trigger position, as shown in the figure below.
Return Format
The query returns the delay calibration time of the specified analog channel in scientific notation.
