MEASurement Instructions
MEASure[1|2][:SCALar][:POWer:AC]? [<expected_value>[,<resolution>[,<source list>]]]
HP E4418B/E4419B Programming Guide 2-51
Example
1. The mnemonic DEF means DEFault. This is not equivalent to the DEFault
parameter used in the command sub-systems. The parameters must be entered in
the specified order. If parameters are omitted, they will default from the right.
The parameter DEFault is used as a place holder. Specifying
DEF leaves the
parameter value unchanged.
2. When the measurement result is linear this parameter represents the number
of significant digits. When the measurement result is logarithmic 1 to 4
represents a resolution of 1, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 respectively.
source list This is the channel on which the
command is implemented.
If unspecified the current window
setup is used. However, on the
HP E4419B, if the window shows a
ratio or difference measurement,
the upper window defaults to
channel A and the lower window to
channel B.

(@2) (HP E4419B

MEAS2:POW:AC? -70DBM,1,(@1) This command queries the lower

channel A, using an expected power
level of -70 dBm and a resolution
setting of 1.
