Table 1-2 Range Of Values For Measurement Limits; Checking For Limit Failures - Agilent Technologies U2000 Series Manual

Setting Limits (Check Header - same as previous)
The power sensor can be configured to verify the current measurement in any
measurement line against predefined upper and/or lower limit values. The
range of values that can be set for the upper and lower limits and the default
values depends on the measurement units in the currently measurement line -
see

Table 1-2 Range of Values for Measurement Limits

Checking for Limit Failures

There is a way to check for limit failures:
• Use the CALCulate[1]:LIMit:FAIL? and CALCulate[1]:LIMit:FCOunt?
Using CALCulate
Using CALCulate to check the measurement limit failures in
would return the following results:
CALCulate[1]:LIMit:FAIL?
CALCulate[1]:LIMit:FCOunt?

Returns 1 if there has been 1 or
more limit failures or 0 if there
have been no limit failures. In this
case 1 is returned.
Returns the total number of limit
failures, in this case 2.
