MEASure:FREQuency:BURSt?

Syntax

MEASure:FREQuency:BURSt? [<channel>]

Description

This query sets all measurement parameters and trigger parameters to default values to measure the car-

rier frequency of a burst (pulse frequency), then immediately triggers a measurement. The results are sent

directly to the instrument output buffer.

Parameters

Name Type Range of Values Default Value

<channel> Expression (@3) (@3)

Remarks

l Available only on the Keysight 53230A. Requires option 150.

l CONFigure and MEASure disable narrow burst mode. Because of this, MEASure:FREQuency:BURSt?

will return 9.91E37 (Not a Number) for bursts shorter than 10 microseconds. For such bursts, you

should use CONFigure:FREQuency:BURSt, SENSe:FREQuency:BURSt:GATE:NARRow ON, and READ?

instead of MEASure:FREQuency:BURSt?.

Return Format

The query returns a single measurement. The format of the measurement is controlled by the FORMat

Subsystem commands.

Examples

The following example configures the instrument for burst frequency measurements on channel 3 using

default parameters, makes one measurement, and then transfers the measurement to the instrument out-

put buffer. The burst must have a duration of at least 10 microseconds.
