Measurement Functions – The SENSe Subsystem Measurement Operations & Settings
Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Fifth Edition 95
Setting parameters for the MinMax function sets some parameters,
including hidden parameters, for the stability and logging functions and
vice versa. You must use the
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:MINMax command to set
parameters before you start a MinMax function using the
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:STATe command.
NOTE
command:
:SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:MINMax
syntax: :SENSe[n][:CHANnel[m]]:FUNCtion:PARameter:MINMax<wsp>
CONTinous|WINDow|REFResh,<data points>
description: Sets the MinMax mode and the number of data points for the
MinMax data acquisition function.
parameters: CONTinous:
WINDow:
REFResh:
continuous MinMax mode
window MinMax mode
refresh MinMax mode
Data Points is the number of samples that are recorded in the memory buffer used by the
WINDow and REFResh modes. Data Points is an integer value.
See Chapter 3 of the Agilent 8163A/B Lightwave Multimeter, Agilent 8164A/B Lightwave
Measurement System, & Agilent 8166A/B Lightwave Multichannel System User’s Guide, for
more information on MinMax mode.
