COMMAND REFERENCE

Example 1:

 

Send MEASure:VOLTage:AC? 0.6,(@2)

Measures AC- RMS on

 

 

channel 2, expected

Read <the measured AC-RMS value>

voltage 600 mV.

 

Send FETCh:DC? (@2)

Fetches the DC

Read <the measured DC component>

component.

 

Send FETCh:AMPLitude? (@2)

Fetches the waveform

Read <the measured amplitude>

amplitude.

 

Example 2:

 

Send CONFigure:AC

Configures for AC-RMS.

Send TRIGger:SOURce BUS

Trigger source GPIB.

Send SENSe:VOLTage:RANGe:OFFSet .25

250 millivolt offset.

Send INITiate

Initiates trigger system.

Send *TRG

Triggers (GET) via GPIB.

Send FETCh:AC?

Fetches AC-RMS value.

Read <the measured AC-RMS voltage>

 

Note:

Because the trigger source is BUS (GPIB), the GET (Group Execute

 

Trigger) code must be sent after INITiate and before FETCh? to trigger

 

the acquisition.

 

Errors:

(1)When a FETCh? query is executed and no valid acquisition data is available, nor an acquisition pending, execution error -230, "Data corrupt or stale" is generated. In that case, no result is returned as response to the FETCh? query.

(2)When a FETCh? query for a characteristic from a TRACe memory element is received, which does not contain valid acquisition data, execution error -230, "Data corrupt or stale" is generated.
