measurement in the Measurements tab of the user interface.
<N> An integer, 1- 10. This number represents the position of the measurement
on screen in the Measurements tab.
<source> {CHANnel<N> | FUNCtion<F> | DIGital<M> | WMEMory<N> | CLOCk |
MTRend | MSPectrum | EQUalized}
MTRend and MSPectrum sources are only available if the oscilloscope has
the EZJIT option installed and the feature is enabled.
The CLOCk source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High Speed
Serial option installed and the feature is enabled.
The EQUalized source is only available if the oscilloscope has the High
Speed Serial option and the Serial Data Equalization option installed and
