Chapter Three

Control Reference

Sets/Queries the probe attenuation. The probe attenuation is the factor by which the signal is made
smaller, for example, 10 means that the probe divides by 10, and is referred to as a ÷10 probe. Note
that certain passive probes may be marked as 'x10', even though they actually divide the input signal
by a factor of 10.

ProbeAttenuation

From 1e-006 to 10000 step 1e-006

Double

' Visual Basic Script
Set app = CreateObject("LeCroy.XStreamDSO")

' Set the probe attenuation for channel C1 to 100
app.Acquisition.C1.ProbeAttenuation = 100

Description

Sets/Queries the vertical scale (in Volts/Division) of an input channel. When variable gain
(VerScaleVariable control) is disabled, the control will clip values to a 1..2..5 sequence. When variable
gain is enabled, the setting resolution lies in the range 1% to 2%, depending upon the numerical value.

VerScale

From 0.001 to 1 step 0.0005, locked to 1 2 5, fine grain allowed=true, on=false

' Visual Basic Script
Set app = CreateObject("LeCroy.XStreamDSO")

' Set C1 to a scale of 250mV/Div in Variable Scale mode
app.Acquisition.C1.VerScaleVariable = True
app.Acquisition.C1.VerScale = 0.25
