6.6 MEASURE SCPI COMMAND SUBSYSTEM
This section first presents a tree summary of the MEASure commands
and then provides a tabular description.
6.6.1 MEASURE SCPI Command Summary
MEASure
:CURRent
:CURRent?
:AVErage <NR1>
:AVErage?
:POWer? (Available only with SGI power supplies – see Section 6.13.)
:VOLTage
:VOLTage?
:AVErage <NR1>
:AVErage?
6.6.2 MEASURE SCPI Command Reference
The letter “C” in the “SCPI” column means that the command syntax is SCPI
compliant; an “N” in the “SCPI” column means that the command syntax is not
part of the SCPI definition.
Returns the floating point value of the DC output current in amps.
Measure Current subsystem.
Enter a value of 3 to 9 to set the number of readings to average
together when returning the current value from the MEAS:CURR?
command to reduce noise in the readback readings. The value of 3
(factory default) provides the fastest response time in the readings,
but less rejection of noise.
Returns the number 3 to 9 to indicate the number of readings to
average together when taking a current reading.
(SGI only); see Section 6.13
Returns the floating point value of the DC output voltage in volts.
Measure Voltage subsystem.
Enter a value of 1 to 5 to set the number of readings to average
together when returning the voltage value from the MEAS:VOLT?
command. This function reduces noise in the readback readings.
The value of 1 (factory default) provides the fastest response time in
the readings, but less rejection of noise.
Returns the number 1 to 5 to indicate the last set number of readings
to average together when taking a voltage reading.
