Measurement Commands and their Results for Swept SA
The INITiate and CONFigure syntax, as well as the data returned by the queries FETCh, MEASure
and READ, are described in this section.
Note that the data returned by FETCh?, MEASure? and READ? uses the data settings specified by
the commands FORMat:BORDer (see
"Format Data: Byte Order (Remote Command Only)" on page
) and FORMat:DATA (see
"Format Data: Numeric Data (Remote Command Only)" on page 124
),
and can return real or ASCII data. If the format is set to INT,32, it returns REAL,32 data.
For more measurement related commands, see the SENSe subsystem, and the
Measurement Functions" on page 111
.
The INITiate command works in a slightly different fashion in the Spectrogram view. In the other Views
(Normal, Trace Zoom and Zone Span), the following two commands perform exactly the same function:
:INITiate:RESTart
:INITiate:IMMediate
However, in the Spectrogram View, the command :INITiate:RESTart works like the Restart key, and
clears out the Spectrogram trace history. The command :INITiate:IMMediate does not clear out the
Spectrogram trace history but performs all other functions of performing a restart.
The table below lists the measurement commands and their responses for the SANalyzer
measurement. Note that the marker values are x, y pairs.
