MEASURE SCPI Command Reference

In the following table a "C" in the SCPI column indicates that the command is SCPI-compliant.

Command Description

SCPI

MEASure

Measure subsystem.

C

:CURRent?

Returns the floating point value of the DC output
current in amps.

C

:CURRent

:AVErage

Enter a value of 1 to 5 to set the number of readings
to average together when returning the current value
from the MEAS:CURR? command. This function
reduces noise in the readback readings. The
(default) value of 1 provides the fastest response
time, but the noisiest readings.

N

:AVErage?

Returns the number 1 to 5 to indicate the last set
number of readings to average together when taking
a current reading.

N

:VOLTage?

Returns the floating point value of the DC output
voltage in volts.

C

:VOLTage

:AVErage

Enter a value of 1 to 5 to set the number of readings
to average together when returning the voltage value
from the MEAS:VOLT? command. This function
reduces noise in the readback readings. The
(default) value of 1 provides the fastest response
time, but the noisiest readings.

N

:AVErage?

Returns the number 1 to 5 to indicate the last set
number of readings to average together when taking
a voltage reading.
