Measurements in NORMal mode are fastest with only one sensor attached. When two sensors are attached, the
NORMal mode measurement rate is reduced. This applies for all three major measurement commands, FETCh?,
READ? and MEASure?. Both of the averaging types, MOVing and REPeat, slow down when in the NORMal mode.
MOVing provides faster averaging; the speed is equivalent to REPeat whenever the averaging number is 1.
When performing measurements in either GPIB SWIFt or GPIB BURSt modes, measurement rates are the same
with two sensors as with one sensor. Approximate measuring speeds are listed in Table 1-2.
CALC:DATA?
Syntax:
CALCulate<channel 1 to 4>:DATA?
Example:
CALC1:DATA?
! INTERRUPTS THE BURST MODE MEASUREMENT AND
! DUMPS THE MEASUREMENT DATA
Description:
This command interrupts the BURSt measurement and dumps the measurement buffer. All
empty locations will be filled with -300 before the data dump. The BURSt mode remains active
after this command so that a trigger will start a new measurement reference.
The command returns measurement data (while the measurement is completing) during
BURSt mode only. This command is not used in NORMal or SWIFt Modes. Operation is similar
to using FETCh? Both are instrument (not channel) commands. That is, when both sensors are
connected, calibrated, and the channel set to ON, this command will return power level data for
both channels.
3.2.18.1
Operating Mode Control
The Operating mode is controlled through the CALC#:MODE command. The choices are NORMal, BURSt, and
SWIFt . Sending CALC1:MODE will set the operating mode for the entire instrument, not just for channel 1.
CALCulate:MODE
Syntax:
CALCulate<channel 1 to 4>:MODE
space<
NORMal, BURSt, or SWIFt selection>
Example:
CALC2:MODE SWIF
! SETS THE MEASUREMENT TO GPIB SWIFT MODE
Description:
This command sets the measurement mode. This is NOT a channel-specific command; it is an
instrument configuration command. Selecting one channel changes both channels to the
desired mode. Use this command to select the level of functionality and performance for
unique applications. NORMal Mode is full functioned. SWIFt Mode allows individual data point
triggering. BURSt Mode allows the fastest measurement rates.
