Agilent Technologies 5000 Series manual MEASureVAMPlitude

3Commands by Subsystem

:MEASure:VAMPlitude

(see page 530)

Command Syntax :MEASure:VAMPlitude [<source>]

<source> ::= {CHANnel<n> FUNCtion MATH}

<n> ::= {1 2 3 4} for the four channel oscilloscope models <n> ::= {1 2} for the two channel oscilloscope models

The :MEASure:VAMPlitude command installs a screen measurement and starts a vertical amplitude measurement. If the optional source parameter is specified, the current source is modified.

Query Syntax :MEASure:VAMPlitude? [<source>]

The :MEASure:VAMPlitude? query measures and returns the vertical amplitude of the waveform. To determine the amplitude, the instrument measures Vtop and Vbase, then calculates the amplitude as follows:

vertical amplitude = Vtop - Vbase

Return Format <value><NL>

<value> ::= the amplitude of the selected waveform in NR3 format
