Measurement command group
Use the commands in the Measurement Command Group to control the automated
measurement system.
Measurement commands can set and query measurement parameters. You can
assign parameters, such as waveform sources and reference levels, differently
for each measurement.
Clock recovery, edge, filter, gating, population and range measurement commands
can be either global or per-measurement.
Global clock r ecovery commands are of the form
:MEASUrement:CLOCKRecovery :XXXX
Global edge commands are of the form :MEASUrement:XXXX
Global filter commands are of the form :MEASUrement:FILTers: XXXX
Global gating commands are of the form :MEASUrement:GATin g:XXXX
Global population commands are of the form
:MEASUrement:POPUlation:XX XX
Global range commands are of the form :MEASUrement:MEASRange:XXXX
Reference levels for measurements can be global, per-measurement
or per-source. The default is global. Per-measurement settings are
used when local reference levels are enabled for the measurement with
the command
:MEASUrement:MEAS?:GLOBalref 0.Per-source
settings are used when per-source settings are enabled with the
command
:MEASUrement:REFLevels
:TYPE Pe rSource
and
per-source settings are selected for the measurement with the command
:MEASUrement:MEAS?:GLOBalr ef 0.
Global reference level commands are of the form
:MEASUrement:REFLevels:XXX X
Per-source reference level commands are of the form
:MEASUrement:CH1:REFLevels :XXXX
:MEASUrement:MATH1:REFLeve ls:XXXX

Command
Description
MEASUrement?
This command retur ns all measurement parameters.
MEASUrement:ADDMEAS
This command adds a measurement.
MEASUrement:ADDNew Adds the specified measurement.
MEASUrement:ANNOTate This command sets or queries the annotation state for measurements.
MEASUrement:AUTOset Performs an analysis jitter autoset.
MEASUrement:CH<x>:REFLevels:ABSolute:
FALLHigh
This command sets or queries the value used as the high reference level of the falling
edge when the source ref level method is set to absolute.
MEASUrement:CH<x>:REFLevels:ABSolute:
FALLLow
This command sets or queries the value used as the low reference level of the falling
edge when the source ref level method is set to absolute.
