To Set the Meter High End and Low End Point Display Units.

Use the :METer:HEND:DUNits and :MEter:LEND:DUNits commands to set the analog bar-graph meter high end point and low end point display units. Refer to

To Specify Units-of-Measure for CRT Display” in the Operating Overview chapter of the E8285A User’s Guide for description of display units.

 

 

Syntax

 

 

:METer:HEND:DUNits <disp_units>

 

 

:METer:LEND:DUNits <disp_units>

 

 

Example

 

 

OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:HEND:DUN DBM"

 

 

OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:LEND:DUN DBM"

 

 

This sets the high end point and low end point display units of the analog bar-

 

 

graph meter for the TX power measurement to dBm.

 

 

 

NOTE:

When querying the Meter data function through GPIB, the Test Set always returns

 

numeric values in attribute units, regardless of the current display units or GPIB units

 

settings. Numeric values are expressed in scientific notation.

 

 

 

To Query the Meter High End and Low End Point Display Units.

Use the :METer:HEND:DUNits? and :MEter:LEND:DUNits? commands to query the analog bar-graph meter high end point and low end point display units. Refer to “ To Specify Units-of-Measure for CRT Display” in the Operating Overview chapter of the E8285A User’s Guide for description of display units.

Syntax

:METer:HEND:DUNits?

:METer:LEND:DUNits?

Example

OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:HEND:DUN?"

ENTER 714;Met_hidisp_unit$

OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:LEND:DUN?"

ENTER 714;Met_lodisp_unit$

This queries the high end point and low end point display units of the analog bar-graph meter for the TX power measurement.

NOTE:When querying the Meter data function through GPIB, the Test Set always returns numeric values in attribute units, regardless of the current display units or GPIB units settings. Numeric values are expressed in scientific notation.
