Measurement Subsystem (Voltage)

This subsystem programs the voltage measurement capability of the ac source. Two measurement
commands are available: MEASure and FETCh. MEASure triggers the acquisition of new measurement
data before returning a reading. FETCh returns a reading computed from previously acquired data.
Individual outputs of a three-phase source are specified by the setting of INSTrument:NSELect.

Subsystem Syntax

[:SCALar]

:VOLTage

[:DC]?

Returns dc component of the voltage

:AC?

Returns ac rms voltage

:ACDC?

Returns ac+dc rms voltage

:HARMonic

[:AMPLitude]? <n>

Returns amplitude of the Nth harmonic of voltage

:PHASe? <n>

Returns phase of the Nth harmonic of voltage

:THD?

Returns % of total harmonic distortion of voltage
