24 :MEASure Commands
:MEASure:DELay
(see page 1610)
Command Syntax
:MEASure:DELay [<edge_select_mode>][,][<source1>][,<source2>]
<edge_select_mode> ::= {MANual | AUTO}
<source1>, <source2> ::= {CHANnel<n> | FUNCtion<m> | MATH<m>
| WMEMory<r> | <digital channels>}
<n> ::= 1 to (# analog channels) in NR1 format
<m> ::= 1 to (# math functions) in NR1 format
<r> ::= 1 to (# ref waveforms) in NR1 format
<digital channels> ::= DIGital<d> for the MSO models
<d> ::= 0 to (# digital channels - 1) in NR1 format
The :MEASure:DELay command places the instrument in the continuous
measurement mode and starts a delay measurement.
The measurement is taken as:
delay = t(<edge_spec_2>) - t(<edge_spec_1>)
where the <edge_spec> definitions are determined by the <edge_select_mode>
and the :MEASure:DELay:DEFine command.
When the <edge_select_mode> is:
• AUTO — edges are automatically selected: the source1 edge closest to the
timebase reference point is used, and the source2 edge closest to the source1
edge is used.
• MANual — edge numbers are determined by the :MEASure:DELay:DEFine
settings.
Edge numbers greater than zero (0) are counted from the left side of the display
for both sources.
Edge slopes are always determined by the :MEASure:DELay:DEFine settings.
If the <edge_select_mode> is not included with the command, AUTO is the default.
Query Syntax
:MEASure:DELay? [<edge_select_mode>][,][<source1>][,<source2>]
The :MEASure:DELay? query measures and returns the delay between source1 and
source2. Delay measurement slope and edge count parameters are determined by
the <edge_select_mode> and the :MEASure:DELay:DEFine command.
The <edge_select_mode> definitions are the same as with the command syntax.
However, if the <edge_select_mode> is not included with the query, MANual is the
default.
