VOLTage{<ampl>|MINimum|MAXimum}(?)
Description
This command programs the peak to peak amplitude of the output waveform. The amplitude is calibrated
when the source impedance is 50
Ω
.
Parameters
Name

Type
Default
Description
<ampl>
100e-3 to
10e0
Numeric
5
Will set the amplitude of the output waveform in units
of volts. Amplitude setting is always peak to peak.
Offset and amplitude settings are independent
providing that the amplitude does not exceed
the specified window.
<MINimum>
Discrete
Will set the amplitude to the lowest possible level
(100mV).
MAXimum>
Discrete
Will set the amplitude to the highest possible level
(10V).
Response
The 5251 will return the present amplitude value. The returned value will be in standard scientific format (for
example: 100mV would be returned as 100e-3 – positive numbers are unsigned).
VOLTage:OFFSet<offs>(?)
Description
This command programs the amplitude offset of the output waveform. The offset is calibrated when the
source impedance is 50
Ω
.

Description
<offs>
-4.950 to
4.950
Numeric
0
Will set the offset of the output waveform in units of
volts. Offset and amplitude settings are independent
providing that the amplitude does not exceed
the specified window.
Response
The 5251 will return the present offset value. The returned value will be in standard scientific format (for
example: 100mV would be returned as 100e-3 – positive numbers are unsigned).
FUNCTion:MODE{FIXed|USER|SEQuence|MODulatedCOUNter|PULSe|H
ALFcycle}(?)
Description
This command defines the type of waveform that will be available at the output connector. It also selects
one fo the auxiliary functions from: counter/timer, digital pulse generator and half cycle waveforms
