READ[1|2][:SCALar][:POWer:AC]:RATio? [<expected_value>[,<resolution>[,<source list>]]]
This command is only relevant for the HP E4419B power meter.
This command sets the specified window's measurement function to ratio
mode with relative mode off, aborts then initiates both channel A and B,
calculates the ratio measurement result and places the result on the bus.
The result is a ratio based measurement and is expressed in the units
defined by UNIT[1|2]:POWer:RATio.
