:SOURce:TTL4:[LEVel] <b>

Details
These commands are used to set the logic levels for the digital output port. The actual level (high or
low) of a digital output line depends on its programmed polarity. If the polarity of a line is active-high,
then that line is high when it is set to be true (
1
or
ON
), and low when it is set to be false (
0
or
OFF
).
Conversely, if polarity is active-low, the line is low when it is set to be true, and high when it is set to
be false.
If a

does not check or change the output status.
