Reference
Oscillator Tuning
REF= 3 bytes Command or Query.
Sets or returns the reference oscillator tuning voltage adjustment by sending a DAC value in the form xxx,
where:
xxx = is a numeric value from 0 to 255.
Default value: 087
Note: This command sets the DAC value, but the actual Reference Oscillator tuning voltage can be monitored
using the RMS command.
Example: <1/REF=087’cr’
>0001/REF=’cr’’lf’
REF=
REF?
REF*
REF? REF=xxx
(See Description of
Arguments)
Retrieve
Equipment Type E

Example: <1/RET?’cr’
>0001/RET=PS2053-5967-C REF BUC VER: 1.5.2’cr’’lf’
RET= RET? RET=x….x
