NOTE:
To Set the Meter High End and Low End Points.
:MEter:LEND commands to set the analog bar-graph meter's high endpoint and
low endpoint.
Syntax
:METer:HEND <real number>
:METer:LEND <real number>
Example
OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:HEND 20"
OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:LEND 10"
This sets the analog bar-graph meter's high endpoint to 20 watts and the
low endpoint to 10 watts for the TX Power measurement.
When setting the value of the METER Data Function through HP-IB, a
non-Attribute Unit unit-of-measure must be specified in the command string, otherwise
the current Attribute Unit is assumed by the Test Set. Refer to
(AUNits)" on page 73.
To Query the Meter High End and Low End Points.
:MEter:LEND? commands to query the analog bar-graph meter high endpoint and
low endpoint.
Syntax
:METer:HEND?
:METer:LEND?
Example
OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:HEND?"
ENTER 714;Meter_hi_end
OUTPUT 714;"MEAS:RFR:POW:MET:LEND?"
ENTER 714;Meter_lo_end
This queries the high end point and low end point of the analog bar-
graph meter for the TX Power measurement.
When querying the value of the METER Data Function through HP-IB, the Test
Set always returns numeric values in Attribute Units, regardless of the current
Display Units or HP-IB Units settings. Numeric values are expressed in scientific
notation. Refer to "Attribute Units (AUNits)" on page
