Voltage Measurement Subsystem

This subsystem programs the voltage measurement capability of the MX/RS/BPS Series.
Two measurement commands are available: MEASure and FETCh. MEASure triggers the
acquisition of new measurement data before returning a reading. FETCh returns a reading
computed from previously acquired data.

Individual outputs of a three-phase source are specified by the setting of
INSTrument:NSELect.

Subsystem Syntax

MEASure | FETCh
[:SCALar]
:VOLTage

[:AC]?

Returns ac rms voltage

:DC?

Returns the dc component of the voltage

:HARMonic

[:AMPLitude]?

Returns

amplitude of the Nth harmonic of voltage

:PHASe?

Returns

phase

of the Nth harmonic of voltage

:THD?

Returns % of total harmonic distortion of voltage

MEASure:VOLTage[:AC]?
FETCh:VOLTage[:AC]?

Phase Selectable

These queries return the ac rms voltage being sourced at the output terminals.

Query Syntax

MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage:AC?

FETCh[:SCALar]:VOLTage:AC?
Parameters None
Examples MEAS:VOLT:AC?

FETC:VOLT:AC?

Returned Parameters

INST:NSEL

MEASure:VOLTage:DC?
FETCh:VOLTage:DC?

Phase Selectable

These queries return the dc component of the output voltage being sourced at the output
terminals. This command should be used when the voltage mode is set for DC or ACDC
