Using READ?
Using INITiate and FETCh?
Example 2 - Specifying the source list parameter
The CONFigure command and READ? query have three optional parameters: an
expected power value, a resolution, and a source list. These parameters must be
entered in the specified order. Parameters may be defaulted from the right by
omitting them, or anywhere by substituting the keyword DEFault. The parameter
DEFault is used as a placeholder.
The following examples use the source list parameter to specify the measurement.
The expected power and resolution parameters are set to their default values,
leaving them at their current settings.
Although the READ? and FETCh? queries have three optional parameters, it is not
necessary to define them as shown in these examples. If they are defined, they
must be identical to those defined in the CONFigure command, otherwise an error
will occur.
Using READ?
*RST Resets the U8480 Series.
CONF Configures the measurement -sets to a single measurement by
default.
READ? Initiates and retrieves the measurement.

INIT Sets it to wait for a trigger state.
FETC? Triggers a measurement, and then retrieves the measurement
reading.
ABOR Aborts the measurement.
CONF DEF,DEF,(@1) Configures the measurement to make a measurement
