Using The Lower Level Commands - Agilent Technologies U2000 Series Manual

Using INITiate and FETCh?
The following program segment assumes that it is being measured on the
current window.
ABOR1
CONF1 DEF,3
INIT1
FETC1? DEF,3
Some fine tuning of the above program segment can be carried out for
example, by setting the trigger delay off.
1 ABOR1
2 CONF1 DEF,3
3 TRIG1:DEL:AUTO OFF
4 INIT1:IMM
5 FETC1? DEF,3

Using the Lower Level Commands

An alternative method of making measurements is to use the lower level
commands to set up the expected range and resolution. This can be done using
the following commands:
[SENSe[1]]:POWer:AC:RANGe
The measurement type can be set using the following commands in the
CALCulate subsystem:
CALCulate[1]:MATH[:EXPRession]
The advantage of using the lower level commands over the CONFigure
command is that they give you more precise control of the power sensor. As
shown in
U2000 Series Programming Guide
Aborts current measurement
Configures the current measurement to use the
current setting of the expected power and source
list and a resolution setting of 3
Causes a measurement
Retrieves the current measurement
the CONFigure command presets various states in the
