NONE 
Interrupt measurement after each statistics cycle 
Continue measurement according to its rep. mode 
NONE –  V3.10 
Description of command 
This command determines the number of statistics cycles, the stop condition and the stepping mode for the 
measurement. 
Note:  In the case of READ commands (READ:...), the <Repetition> parameter has no effect; the measure-
ment is always stopped after a single shot. 
 
 
 
Measured Values – Subsystem WPOWer? 
The subsystem WPOWer? retrieves the results of the wideband power measurement. 
 
READ[:SCALar]:WPOWer?    Start single shot measurement and return results
FETCh[:SCALar]:WPOWer?
    Read out measurement results (unsynchronized)
SAMPle[:SCALar]:WPOWer?
    Read out measurement results (synchronized)

Description of command 
These commands are always queries. They start the measurement of the maximum RF power (peak power, not 
averaged) and return the result.
