FETCh, MEASure, and READ Queries
There are three different ways to query the power measurement results using
FETC?, MEAS?, and READ?.
In the Free Run or Continuous mode, you can use either FETC? or MEAS? to query
the power measurement results.
or
In the Single Trigger mode, you can use FETC?, MEAS?, or READ? to query the
power measurement.
or
-> INIT:CONT ON // Sets the U8480 Series to the Free Run mode.
-> FETC? // Queries the measurement results from the
buffer.
-> INIT:CONT ON // Sets the U8480 Series to the Free Run mode.
-> MEAS? // Reads the measurement results. MEAS? is
equivalent to CONF followed by a READ?.
-> INIT:CONT OFF // Sets the U8480 Series to the Single Trigger
mode.
-> CONF // Configures the measurement.
-> INIT // Initializes the measurement.
-> FETC? // Queries the measurement results. The sequence
above must be followed.
-> INIT:CONT OFF // Sets the U8480 Series to the Single Trigger
mode.
-> MEAS? // Reads the measurement results. MEAS? is
equivalent to CONF followed by a READ?.
