USING THE COMBISCOPE INSTRUMENTS

Examples:

MEASure:FALL:TIME? (@3)

Measures the time interval during which the pulse at channel 3 decreases from 90% to 10% of its amplitude.

MEASure:RISE:TIME? 20,80

Measures the time interval during which the pulse at the default channel 1 increases from 20% to 80% of its amplitude.

The following measure functions and parameters can be programmed:

<measure_function><measure_parameters>

:AC
:AMPLitude
[:DC]
:FALL
:OVERshoot
:PREShoot
:TIME	[<reference_low> [,<reference_high> [,<expected_time>

:TMAXimum
:TMINimum
:RISE
:OVERshoot
:PREShoot
:TIME	[<reference_low> [,<reference_high> [,<expected_time>
	[,<time_resolution>]]]]

Notes: - :DCYCle = alias for :PDUTycycle

-:FTIMe = alias for :FALL:TIME
