:IMMediate
:CALCulate2:IMMediate Perform CALC2
Query :IMMediate? Perform calculation and read result (equivalent to
:CALCulate2:IMMediate; DATA?)
Description The :IMMediate command is used to perform the selected CALC2 opera-
tion on the readings in the buffer (assuming CALC2 is enabled; see
:STATe). After performing the calculation, the result can be read by using
the :CALCulate2:DATA? query command.
Another way to perform the calculation and read the result is to use the
query form of the command (:IMMediate?). When this command is sent,
the calculation is performed and the result is queried.
Program This example assumes that there are readings stored in the buffer and
that CALC2 is enabled:
PRINT #1, “output 02; :calc2:form max” ‘ Select format
PRINT #1, “output 02; :calc2:imm?” ‘ Perform math and query result
PRINT #1, “enter 02” ‘ Get response from 2000
:DATA?
:CALCulate2:DATA? Read CALC2 result
Description This query command is used to read the result of the CALC2 calculation.
If CALC2 is disabled or NONE is selected, the “raw” reading will be read.
