Measurement Instructions (:CONFigure, :FETCh, :MEASure, :READ)
4-76 Programming Guide
How to Use the Measurement Instruction Commands (Cont.)
Using :CONFigure with :READ?
The :CONFigure command causes the instrument to choose default settings for the
specified measurement. :READ? starts the measurement and queries the result.
This sequence operates in the same way as the :MEASure query, but now it is
possible to insert commands between :CONFigure and :READ? to specify a
particular setting. For example, use
:CONF:FREQ 5 MHZ, 1HZ
to configure a default frequency measurement where 1 Hz is the required
resolution and 5 MHz is the expected value.
Use
:SENS:EVEN:LEV 0V
to set the trigger level to 0 Volts.
Use
:READ?
to start the measurement and query the result.
Using :CONFigure with :INITiate and :FETCh?
The :READ? query is composed of the :INITiate command, which starts the
measurement, and the :FETCh? command, which returns the results to the
controller. For example, use
:CONF:FREQ 50 MHZ, 1 HZ
to configure for a default frequency measurement where 1 Hz is the required
resolution and 50 MHz is the expected value.
