[:DATA] <trace_name>

Query about the trace data.

Error message:

If the trace name is unknown, an error

-141,"Invalid character data"

will be generated.

Parameters:

<trace_name>

name of desired trace as

<Character Data>

(

MTRACE, ITRACE, IFPAN

or

SSTART, SSTOP)

Result:

The following is valid for

MTRACE

:

Output of measured values of all sensor functions switched on. If no function is switched on,

NaN

(Not a

Number) is output.
If

FREQ:OFFS

is switched on, only the offset value is output. If

VOLT:AC

is switched on, only the level

value is output. If

FREQ:OFFS

and

VOLT:AC

are switched on, first the level value and then the offset

value are output.
The INF value 9.9E37 is entered into the result buffers MTRACE and ITRACE for MSCAN, FSCAN or
PSCAN to identify the range limit.
If measurements can't be carried out due to current settings (e.g. offset measurement with I/Q, CW, ISB
or SSB), it is indicated by the NINF value –9.9E37.

The following is valid for

ITRACE

:

Output of channel number and receive frequency.

Note:

With SW option EM510IM (ITU Measurement) installed, apart from level and offset the measurement

functions AM modulation index , FM frequency deviation, PM phase deviation and band width
measurement are also available.

Depending on the setting, the output format is defined by the

FORMat:DATA

command:

ASCii

-> normal ASCII output:

level in dBuV

offset in Hz signed

AM modulation index in %

AM positive modulation index in %

AM negative modulation index in %

FM frequency deviation in Hz

positive frequency deviation in Hz

negative frequency deviation in Hz

phase deviation in rad

bandwidth in Hz

channel number without unit

frequency in Hz
