POWER METER
Purpose:
To read the value of Watt meter.
Command Syntax:
SLM Modules:
MEAS:POW?{;|NL}
Description:
MEAS:POW? Reads back the value of 4 digit of the Watt meter; unit is (W).
VA METER
Purpose:
To read the value of VA meter.
Command Syntax:
SLM AC Modules:
MEAS:VA?{;|NL}
Description:
MEAS:VA? Reads back the value of 4 digit of VAmeter, unit is (VA).
GLOB:GLOBAL (All channels active at the same time)
If a channel does not have a module installed, read back will be 9999, to input buffer.
GLOB:MEAS:VOLT
Purpose:
The reading of 4 1/2 digit voltage meter from channel 1 to channel 4 read back query
command.
Command Syntax:
All Modules:
GLOB:MEAS:VOLT?{NL}
Description:
GLOB:MEAS:VOLT? returns the present 4 1/2 digital voltage meter reading from channel 1
to channel 4 respectively. The returned data format is shown in Table 4-2, the engineering
unit is “V”.
Example:
GLOB:MEAS:VOLT?
read back data is 4.998, 12.002, 9999., 11.998 where channel 1 voltage is 4.998V, channel
2 voltage is 12.002V, channel 3 is non-installed, channel 4 voltage is 11.998V.
GLOB:MEAS:CURR
Purpose:
The reading of 4 1/2 digit current meter from channel 1 to channel 4 read back query
command.
Command Syntax:
All Modules:
GLOB:MEAS:CURR?{NL}
Description:
GLOB:MEAS:CURR? returns the present 4 1/2 digital current meter reading from channel 1
to channel 4 respectively. The engineering unit is “A”.
Example:
GLOB:MEAS:CURR?
read back data is 4.998, 3.002, 9999., 0.998 where channel 1 current is 4.998 A, channel 2
current is 3.002 A, channel 3 is non installed, channel 4 current is 0.998 A.
