Making Measurements

The Agilent N8900 series has fully integrated voltmeter and ammeter to measure the actual voltage and current that
is being supplied to the load. Whenever the instrument is on, the front panel automatically measures output voltage
and current.

Power measurements are derived from the voltage and current measurements.

Average (DC) Measurements

Use the following commands to make a measurement:

Front Panel

SCPI Command

Select the

Meter

key.

Repeatedly press this key to cycle
through the following measurement
functions:
Voltage, Current
Voltage, Power
Voltage, Current, Power

To measure average (DC) output
voltage, current, or power:

MEAS:VOLT?
MEAS:CURR?
MEAS:POW?
