:MTESt Commands 20
Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 393
:MTESt:AMASk:UNITs
(see page 860)
Command Syntax
:MTESt:AMASk:UNITs <units>
<units> ::= {CURRent | DIVisions}
The :MTESt:AMASk:UNITs command alters the way the mask test
subsystem interprets the tolerance parameters for automasking as defined
by :MTESt:AMASk:XDELta and :MTESt:AMASk:YDELta commands.
• CURRent — the mask test subsystem uses the units as set by the
:CHANnel<n>:UNITs command, usually time for
X and voltage for Y.
• DIVisions — the mask test subsystem uses the graticule as the
measurement system, so tolerance settings are specified as parts of a
screen division. The mask test subsystem maintains separate XDELta
and YDELta settings for CURRent and DIVisions. Thus, XDELta and
YDELta are not converted to new values when the UNITs setting is
changed.
Query Syntax
:MTESt:AMASk:UNITs?
The :MTESt:AMASk:UNITs query returns the current measurement units
setting for the mask test automask feature.
Return Format
<units><NL>
<units> ::= {CURR | DIV}
