FREQuency = Secondary reading is frequency
PERiod = Secondary reading is period
PTP = Secondary reading is peak-to-peak
PPEak = Secondary reading is positive peak
NPEak = Secondary reading is negative peak
CFACtor = Secondary reading is the crest factor
:SECondary?
Returns the selected secondary reading setting
:SECondary:METHod MEASure|SINE|
SQUare|TRIangle|TSINe
Set the method by which the secondary peak-to-peak value is
calculated
MEASured = The measured positive peak minus the measured
negative peak value
SINe = The peak to peak of a sine wave calculated from the rms
value

from the rms value
TRUNcated = The peak to peak of a truncated sine wave
calculated from the rms value
:SECondary:METHod?
Returns the method by which the secondary peak-to-peak value
is calculated
