Interface Operation
75
source and bandwidth—
Is a series of strings or numeric data defining the source and bandwidth for the
parameter, this string is surrounded by “
[
and
]
” (square brackets).
sub-definition string—
Is an optional string, enclosed by “
{
and
}”
(curly braces), containing optional
additional operations to be performed on the parameter result. If no further
processing is required, then the surrounding brackets/braces need not be present.
special-parameter—
Is a special parameter definition string defining the special (textual) data to be
retrieved.
Retrieving Parameters
A parameter string contains one of the following strings, which defines the “base”
parameter to be retrieved. For example, the defined string “source and bandwidth”
retrieves the parameter’s source and bandwidth:
The available formats are as follows:
AMPL—
The RMS amplitude (i.e. Volts or Current). This parameter requires a single input
source and either a string bandwidth or a pair of integers defining the harmonic range
for the data. The default units for these results is
Vrms
or
Arms
as applicable.
AMPLFR—
The RMS amplitude (i.e. Volts or Current). This parameter requires a single input
source and a pair of numeric frequencies defining the center frequency and half-
bandwidth for the data (in Hz). (Note that this data is not available from the front
panel). The default units for these results is
Vrms
or
Arms
as applicable.
AVG—
The average rectified amplitude (i.e. Volts or Current). This parameter requires a
single input source. The default units for these results is V or A as applicable.
CORREL—
Power Factor or Correlation (i.e. W/VA). This parameter requires a input or group
of inputs, and either a string bandwidth or a pair of integers defining the harmonic
range for the data. The default units for this result is none.
CF—
Crest Factor (i.e. Peak/RMS Volts or Current). This parameter requires a single
input source and a string bandwidth. The default units for this result is none.
