Examples
MEASUREMENT:MEAS3? might return PERIOD;"s";CH1
MEASUrement:MEAS<x>:DELay?
Returns the delay measurement parameters for the measurement specified by
<x>, which ranges from 1 through 6. Query only.
Group
Measurement
Syntax
MEASUrement:MEAS<x>:DELay?
Examples
MEASUrement:MEAS1:DELay? might
return :MEASUREMENT:MEAS1:DELAY:DIRECTION FORWARDS;EDGE1
RISE;EDGE2 RISE.
MEASUrement:MEAS<x>:DELay:EDGE<x>
Sets or queries the slope of the edge used for the delay from or to waveform
when taking an immediate delay measurement. The waveform is specified by
MEASUrement:MEAS<x>:SOURCE[1].
Group
Measurement
Syntax
MEASUrement:MEAS<x>:DELay:EDGE<x> {FALL|RISe}
MEASUrement:MEAS<x>:DELay:EDGE<x>?
Arguments
<x> specifies which waveform to use, where <x> = 1 is the "from" waveform,
and <x> = 2 is the "to" waveform.
FALL specifies the falling edge.
RISe specifies the rising edge.
Examples
MEASUREMENT:MEAS1:DELAY:EDGE1 RISE specifies that the "from"
waveform rising edge be used for the immediate delay measurement.
MEASUREMENT:MEAS1:DELAY:EDGE1? returns either RISE or FALL
