:MTESt:COUNt:FWAVeforms?
Query :MTESt:COUNt:FWAVeforms?
The :MTESt:COUNt:FWAVeforms? query returns the total number of failed
waveforms in the current mask test run. This count is for all regions and
all waveforms, so if you wish to determine failures by region number, use
the COUNt:FAILures? query.
This count may not always be available. It is available only when the
following conditions are true:
• Mask testing was turned on before the histogram or color grade
persistence, and
• No mask changes have occurred, including scaling changes, editing, or
new masks.
The value 9.999E37 is returned if mask testing is not enabled, or if you
have modified the mask.
Returned Format
[:MTESt:COUNt:FWAVeforms] <number_of_failed_waveforms><NL>
<number_
of_failed_
waveforms>
The total number of failed waveforms for the current test run.
Example This example determines the number of failed waveforms and prints the
result on the computer screen.
