Sending this command changes the measurement function to the one specified by <function>.
This function remains selected after the measurement is complete.
:MEASure? performs the same function as READ?.
:MEASure:<function>? performs the same function as sending :SENse:FUNCtion, then READ?.
To change the number of digits returned in a remote command reading, use the
:FORMat:ASCii:PRECision command.
When specifying buffer elements, you can:
• Specify buffer elements in any order.
• Include up to 12 elements in a single list. You can repeat elements as long as the number of
elements in the list is less than 12.
• Use a comma to delineate multiple elements for a data point.
The options for <bufferElements> are described in the following table.
Option Description
The date when the data point was measured; not available for reading buffers that
are set to the style compact
Returns an additional value (such as the sense voltage from a DC voltage ratio
measurement); the reading buffer style must be set to full to use this option
The measured value as it appears on the front panel
The fractional seconds when the data point was measured
The relative time when the data point was measured
The seconds in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) format when the data point was
measured
The status information associated with the measurement; see the "Buffer status bits
for sense measurements" table below
The time when the data point was measured
The timestamp when the data point was measured
The unit of measure of the measurement
