Power can only be measured on power modules with simultaneous
measurement capability (see chapter 1, "Model Differences")
Array queries return all values in the voltage and current
measurement buffer. No averaging is applied, only raw data is
returned from the buffer.
Front Panel:

Retrieve array data
Once a measurement finishes, you may wish to retrieve the array
data without initiating a new measurement. Use FETCh queries to
return the array data from the last measurement. Fetch queries do
not alter the data in the measurement buffer. The commands are:
Front Panel:

Power can only be measured on power modules with simultaneous
measurement capability (see chapter 1, "Model Differences")
If a FETCh query is sent before the measurement is started or before
it is finished, the response will be delayed until the measurement
trigger occurs and the acquisition completes. This may tie up the
computer if the measurement trigger does not occur immediately.
You can test the MEAS_active bit in the operation status register to
know when the measurement has completed as explained in the
following section.
