Commands by Subsystem
:MEASure:VAMPlitude
Command Syntax
:MEASure:VAMPlitude [<source>]
<source> ::= {CHANnel<n> | FUNCtion | MATH}
<n> ::= {1 | 2 | 3 | 4} for the four channel oscilloscope models
<n> ::= {1 | 2} for the two channel oscilloscope models
The :MEASure:VAMPlitude command installs a screen measurement and
starts a vertical amplitude measurement. If the optional source parameter
is specified, the current source is modified.
Query Syntax
:MEASure:VAMPlitude? [<source>]
The :MEASure:VAMPlitude? query measures and returns the vertical
amplitude of the waveform. To determine the amplitude, the instrument
measures Vtop and Vbase, then calculates the amplitude as follows:
Return Format
<value><NL>
<value> ::= the amplitude of the selected waveform in NR3 format
