VIMeas – Single BDS V & I measurement result.

The BDS produces one of these structures per frequency measurement. These structures are grouped together by
fundamental frequency to compose a complete measurement dataset. The number of measurements reported per
dataset depends on the class-level configuration attributes of the Standard Mode object. Structure size = 25 bytes.

Voltage Attn

USINT

Voltage channel attenuation used (in dB). Value
range 0-30dB.

3

Current Attn

USINT

Current channel attenuation used (in dB). Value
range 0-30dB.

4

Frequency

UDINT

Estimated fundamental frequency value in Hz.
Value range: 1-499,999,999Hz in 8-bit ADC mode,
1-99,999,999Hz in 12-bit mode. 0 is an invalid
frequency.

Voltage

REAL

Voltage magnitude (in Vrms).

9

Current

REAL

Current magnitude (in Firms).

13

Phase

REAL

Phase between voltage and current channels in
radians. Always between
-PI and +PI.

17

Relative
Phase

REAL
