306 Agilent InfiniiVision 5000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide

5 Commands by Subsystem

:MEASure:VAMPlitude

(see page 658)

Command Syntax

:MEASure:VAMPlitude [<source>]

<source> ::= {CHANnel<n> | FUNCtion | MATH}

<n>::={1|2|3|4}forthefour channel oscilloscope models

<n> ::= {1 | 2} for the two channel oscilloscope models

The :MEASure:VAMPlitude command installs a screen measurement and

starts a vertical amplitude measurement. If the optional source parameter

is specified, the current source is modified.

Query Syntax

:MEASure:VAMPlitude? [<source>]

The :MEASure:VAMPlitude? query measures and returns the vertical

amplitude of the waveform. To determine the amplitude, the instrument

measures Vtop and Vbase, then calculates the amplitude as follows:

vertical amplitude = Vtop - Vbase

Return Format

<value> ::= the amplitude of the selected waveform in NR3 format
