MEASure[<chan>]:ARRay[:VOLTage][:DC]?

The MEASure command configures the HP E1429 to do the measurement specified by the parameters given with MEASure. All instrument settings will be forced to their *RST values, with the following exceptions. In particular, note that all OUTPut signals are turned off and their FEED’s are changed to reset values, and that both the local bus (VINStrument:LBUS) and VME bus (VINS:VME) are turned off. Be aware that these new states will still be in effect after the MEASure command is complete. See the -- mumble which section -- for a complete list of the reset settings for the HP E1429. The following states are set up after the reset, and thus in most cases, will not be the *RST value for that command:

a.SENSe<n>:FUNCtion is set to "VOLTage[:DC] <port>"

b.SENSe<n>:VOLTage:DC:RANGe is set to the value implied by the expected value given.

c.INPut[<port>]:FILTer is set to ON.

d.SENSe:SWEep:POINts and TRIGger:STARt:COUNt are set to the <size> parameter.
