Obsolete and Discontinued Commands 32
Agilent InfiniiVision 3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Guide 803
:MEASure:VSTArt
(see page 860)
Command Syntax
:MEASure:VSTArt <vstart_argument>
<vstart_argument> ::= value for vertical marker 1
The :MEASure:VSTArt command moves the vertical marker (Y1 cursor) to
the specified value corresponding to the selected source. The source can
be selected by the MARKer:X1Y1source command.
Query Syntax
:MEASure:VSTArt?
The :MEASure:VSTArt? query returns the current value of the Y1 cursor.
Return Format
<value><NL>
<value> ::= voltage at voltage marker 1 in NR3 format

NOTE
The short form of this command, VSTA, does not follow the defined Long Form to Short
Form Truncation Rules (see page 862). The normal short form, VST, would be the same for
both VSTArt and VSTOp, so sending VST for the VSTArt command produces an error.
NOTE
The :MEASure:VSTArt command is an obsolete command provided for compatibility to
previous oscilloscopes. Use the :MARKer:Y1Position command (see page 317) instead.
