Remote programming
This sections describes commands and queries that can be sent to the sensor head when attached to a Tektronix oscilloscope. Long-form
and short-form keywords are indicated with upper/lower case letters. The commands and queries are supported by most oscilloscopes;
differences in supporting oscilloscopes, if any, are described with the commands.
For additional information, refer to the programmer documentation for your oscilloscope.

CH<x>:PRObe? (Query Only)
This query-only command returns all information concerning the probe that is attached to the specified channel. The channel is specified
by x.
Syntax
Examples
CH<x>:PRObe:AUTOZero (No Query Form)
This command executes the AutoZero function. The operation is entirely performed by the oscilloscope. The channel is specified by x.
Refer to the self-calibration procedure for information on performing the self calibration.

CH<x>:PRObe?
CH2:PROBE? might return 1.0000E-01; RESISTANCE 1.0000E+07;UNITS
"V";ID:TYPE "10X"'SERNUMBER "N/A" for a 10X probe, indicating that (among other
parameters) the attenuation factor for the probe attached to Channel 2 is 100.0 mV (assuming that probe
units are set to volts).
CH<x>:PRObe:AUTOZero EXECute
EXECute sets the probe attached to the specified channel to AutoZero.
CH1:PROBE:AUTOZERO EXECUTE sets the probe attached to the Channel 1 to autozero.
