Mask Test Commands
:MTESt:LAMPlitude
Command
:MTESt:LAMPlitude <lower_limit>
The :MTESt:LAMPlitude command sets the minimum pulse amplitude value
that passes the pulse standard. For some of the pulse communications
standards, a pulse has a range of amplitude values and still passes the
standard. This command sets the lower limit used during mask testing.
<lower_limit>
A real number that represents the minimum amplitude in volts of a pulse
as allowed by the pulse standard.
Example
This example sets the minimum pulse amplitude to 2.4 volts.
myScope.WriteString ":MTEST:LAMPLITUDE 2.4"
Query
:MTESt:LAMPlitude?
The :MTESt LAMPlitude? query returns the current value of the minimum
pulse amplitude.
Returned Format
[:MTESt:LAMPlitude] <lower_limit><NL>
<lower_limit>
A real number that represents the minimum amplitude in volts of a pulse
as allowed by the pulse standard.
Example
This example returns the current lower pulse limit and prints it to the
computer's screen.
