READ[1]|2|3|4[:SCALar][:POWer:AC]? [<expected_value>[,<resolution>[,<source list>]]]
This command sets the specified window's measurement function to single
channel with relative mode off, aborts then initiates the specified channel,
calculates the measurement result and places the result on the bus. The
result is a power based measurement and is expressed in the units defined
by UNIT[1]|2|3|4:POWer.
Note INITiate:CONTinuous must be set to OFF, otherwise error -213,
"INIT ignored" occurs. If TRIGger:SOURce is set to BUS, error
-214, "Trigger deadlock" occurs.
