[SENSe<Ch>:]PULSe:GENerator<gen_no>:CPPRofile <Boolean>

Enables or disables the chopped pulse profile mode.

<Ch>	Channel number. If unspecified, this parameter is set to 1.
<gen_no>	Number of the pulse generator signal: 1 for pulse generator, 2 for sync generator signal. This suffix must be set to 1, the chopped pulse profile mode is general.
