Query Syntax

SENSe:AIRField:QFE?

Short form:

SENS:AIRF:QFE?

Function:

This query reads the QFE value when the instrument is in airfield mode.

Response:

A decimal reading in selected units of pressure.

Description

Queries the QFE reading, returns the QFE reading in selected units of pressure when the
instrument is in airfield mode.

Note:

QFE is the mean sea level pressure corrected for temperature and adjusted for a specific

site (i.e. a datum such as an airfield).
