Boonton 4540 Series RF Power Meter
Remote Operation
READ:ARRay:MARKer:POWer?
Description: Returns an array of the current marker measurements for the specified channel. The array consists
of the average, maximum, and minimum power and peak-to-average ratio between the two
markers, powers at both markers, and the ratio of the two markers. Note the peak-to-average ratio
and marker ratio are returned in dB for log units, and percent for linear units.
Syntax: READ[1|2]:ARRay:MARKer:POWer?
Returns: CC1, Pavg, CC2, Pmax, CC3, Pmin, CC4, PkToAvgRatio, CC5, Pwr@Marker1, CC6,
Pwr@Marker2, CC7, Mrk1/Mrk2 ratio
Where the CCn’s are the measurement condition codes for each measurement.
Valid Modes: Pulse and Modulated
READ:CW:POWer?
Description: Return current average amplitude reading in channel units.
Syntax: READ[1|2]:CW:POWer?
Returns: CC, Average power (watts, dBm) or average voltage (volts, dBv)
Where CC is the measurement condition code.
Valid Modes: Modulated Mode only.
READ:INTERval:AVERage?
Description: For the specified channel, return the average power or voltage between marker 1 and marker 2.
The units will be the same as the specified channel.
Syntax: READ[1|2]:INTERval:AVERage?
Returns: CC, average power or voltage between markers
Where CC is the measurement condition code.
Valid Modes: Pulse and Modulated
READ:INTERval:MAXFilt?
Description: For the specified channel, return the maximum filtered power or voltage in the time interval
between marker 1 and marker 2. The units will be the same as the specified channel.
Syntax: READ[1|2]:INTERval:MAXFilt?
Returns: CC, maximum filtered power or voltage between the markers
Where CC is the measurement condition code.
Valid Modes: Pulse and Modulated
