[:SENSe]:DETector[:FUNCtion]?
The query returns a name that corresponds to the detector mode as shown by the following
terms:
Remote Command Notes:
The query returns a name that corresponds to the detector mode. The RMS
selection is an alias which selects the Average detector and Power
Averaging. Therefore, if RMS has been selected, the query will return the
AVER string.
Example: DET POS
2.4.1.1 Auto
The system selects normal detection as the default, but if a condition arises where a
different type of detection scheme would be better utilized, the system uses the alternate
scheme. For example, when in Auto mode, the Marker Noise function uses Average
detection because the system determines that the average detector has better
speed/variance tradeoffs for noise-type signals.
Refer to Figure 2-1, which shows a decision tree of how detection type is determined.
