19 :MARKer Commands
:MARKer:Y1Position
(see page 798)
Command Syntax
:MARKer:Y1Position <position> [suffix]
<position> ::= Y1 cursor position in NR3 format
<suffix> ::= {mV | V | dB}
If the :MARKer:MODE is not currently set to WAVeform (see ":MARKer:MODE" on
page 328), the :MARKer:Y1Position command:
• Sets :MARKer:MODE to MANual.
• Sets the Y1 cursor position to the specified value.
Y cursor units are set by the :MARKer:YUNits command.
When the :MARKer:MODE is set to WAVeform, Y positions cannot be set.
Query Syntax
:MARKer:Y1Position?
The :MARKer:Y1Position? query returns current Y1 cursor position. This is
functionally equivalent to the obsolete :MEASure:VSTArt command/query.
Return Format
<position><NL>
<position> ::= Y1 cursor position in NR3 format

If the front-panel cursors are off or are set to Binary or Hex Mode, the marker position values
are not defined and an error is generated. Make sure to set :MARKer:MODE to MANual or
WAVeform to put the cursors in the front-panel Normal mode.
