Step 6c: Obtain a Set of Measurement Results

Background

In order to minimize bus traffic in the manufacturing environment the test set's high-level measurements
have been designed to return multiple measured values in response to a single measurement request.
For example: if a transmit power measurement with averaging is initiated there will be five measurement
results available as follows:
1. Measurement integrity value
2. Average value
3. Minimum value
4. Maximum value
5. Standard deviation value
The test set has been designed with the capability to return the measurement results in a variety of formats to
suit the needs of the measurement environment. For example, the transmitter power measurement results
can be returned as:
• Measurement integrity and average value
OR
• Average value and minimum value and maximum value and standard deviation value
OR
• Average value only
OR
• Minimum value only
OR
• Maximum value only
OR
• Standard deviation value only
OR
• Measurement integrity value only
The formats available for individual measurements can be found in the test set's FETCh? subsystem's GPIB
command syntax reference information.
