:MEASure Commands 19
Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 337
:MEASure:DEFine
(see page 860)
Command Syntax
:MEASure:DEFine <meas_spec>
<meas_spec> ::= {DELay | THResholds}
The :MEASure:DEFine command sets up the definition for measurements
by specifying the delta time or threshold values. Changing these values
may affect the results of other measure commands. The table below
identifies which measurement results that can be affected by redefining
the DELay specification or the THResholds values. For example, changing
the THResholds definition from the default 10%, 50%, and 90% values may
change the returned measurement result.
:MEASure:DEFine
DELay Command
Syntax
:MEASure:DEFine DELay,<delay spec>
<delay spec> ::= <edge_spec1>,<edge_spec2>
<edge_spec1> ::= [<slope>]<occurrence>
<edge_spec2> ::= [<slope>]<occurrence>
<slope> ::= {+ | -}
<occurrence> ::= integer
