Mask Test Commands 23
Agilent Infiniium 90000 Series Oscilloscopes Programmer's Reference 399
:MTESt:AMASk:SOURce
Command :MTESt:AMASk:SOURce CHANnel<number>
The :MTESt:AMASk:SOURce command selects the source for the
interpretation of the AMASk:XDELta and AMASk:YDELta parameters when
AMASk:UNITs is set to CURRent. When UNITs are CURRent, the XDELta
and YDELta parameters are defined in terms of the channel units, as set
by the :CHANnel:UNITs command, of the selected source. Suppose that
UNITs are CURRent and that you set SOURce to CHANNEL1, which is
using units of volts. Then you can define AMASk:XDELta in terms of volts
and AMASk:YDELta in terms of seconds.
<number> An integer, 1 through 4.
Example This example sets the automask source to Channel 1.
myScope.WriteString ":MTEST:AMASK:SOURCE CHANNEL1"
Query :MTESt:AMASk:SOURce?
The :MTESt:AMASk:SOURce? query returns the currently set source.
Returned Format
[:MTESt:AMASk:SOURce] CHANnel<number><NL>
Example This example gets the source setting for automask and prints the result on
the computer display.
Dim strAmask_source As String
myScope.WriteString ":MTEST:AMASK:SOURCE?"
strAmask_source = myScope.ReadString
Debug.Print strAmask_source
