:MEASure:POWEr[:DC]?
Syntax :MEASure:POWEr[:DC]? [{CH1|CH2|CH3}]
Description Query the output power measured internally on the specified channel.
Parameter
Name Type Range Default
[{CH1|CH2|CH3}] Discrete CH1|CH2|CH3 None
Explanation  If the parameter is omitted, the command queries the power of the channel
currently selected.
 You can send the
:MEASure:CURRent[:DC]? and :MEASure[:VOLTage][:DC]?
commands to query the current and voltage respectively, or send
the
:MEASure:ALL[:DC]? command to query the voltage, current and power at
the same time.
Return Format The query returns the power, for example, 5.000.
Example :MEAS:POWE? CH1 /*Query the power of CH1 and the query returns 5.000*/
