5.7.6  EXAMPLE OF VOLTAGE and CURRENT MEASUREMENT QUERY

 

 

How to query the UPC for three phase RMS volts (Line to Neutral) and RMS current metered values. 
 
LINE to LINE volts, KVA, KW, Power Factor, CURRENT Crest Factor, and Peak Current may also be 
queried in the same way. 
 
See the 

:FETCH

 command and example for obtaining metered waveform data. 

 

Step A.  Address the UPC as a listener. 
 
Step B.  Select Voltages A,B,C and Load Current A,B,C for AC-RMS 
query by sending the following command. 
 

:MEAS:VOLT1;VOLT2;VOLT3;CURR1;CURR2;CURR3?

 <eos> 

NOTE:

  <eos> is a LINE FEED (0Ahex, 10dec). 

 

All parameters will be measured simultaneously upon receipt of the :MEAS: command.  This may take 
several hundred milliseconds depending upon Frequency and other factors.  The values are not stored in 
the UPC and another :MEAS: command will re-measure the values, further delaying response. 

 
Step C.  Address the UPC as a talker to read back a query response 
string, similar to the following example, representing the three voltages 
and currents. 
 

120.2,120.3,121.0,3.2,2.9,3.0<eos> 

 
Step D.  Un-address UPC.
