TVS600 & TVS600A Command Reference

Execution Error –222, “Data out of range”
Attempted to set offset points to an illegal value.

Changing SWEep:OFFSet:POINts also changes SWEep:OFFSet:TIME as they
both control the parameter SWEep:OFFSet.

Command:

SWE:OFFS:POIN -100

Query:

SWE:OFF:POIN?

Response:

-100

SWEep:OREFerence:LOCation
SWEep:OFFSet:TIME
SWEep:POINts
SWEep:TINTerval

Sets or queries the offset between the offset reference point and the trigger point.
You define OFFSet:TIME as a specific period. You assign a certain data point in
the record to be the offset reference point (SWEep:OREFerence:LOCation). A
negative value for offset positions the offset reference point before the trigger
point. All channels use the same sweep offset.

The range for SWEep:OFFSet:TIME depends on the record length and the
location of the offset reference point within the waveform record. Because the
trigger point must always be in the waveform record, the first point of the record
can not be placed more than one full record length before the trigger point. You
can set offset as a number of data points with the command
SWEep:OFFSet:POINts.

The following equation defines the first point of the waveform record:

PT1

time

 = SWEep:OFFSet:TIME –

(SWEep:OREFerence:LOCation * SWEep:TIME)

For more information on setting offset, refer to the discussion of SWEep:OFF-
Set:POINts on page 2–172 and the TVS600 & TVS600A Series Waveform
