:READ Subsystem
This set of commands combines the ABORt, INITiate and FETCh commands. It aborts any current triggering sequence and sets the trigger state to idle. It then initiates a new active measurement (i.e. begins the collection of new data). When the measurement is complete, it returns the result. These commands turnsnot switch to another measurement.
To get the current measurement data, use the FETCh command.
:READ:DEMod?
Title
Read Demodulator
Required Option
41
Description
Triggers a new Demodulator measurement and returns the results: Phase Error (rms), Phase Error (peak), EVM (rms), EVM (peak), Origin Offset, C/I, Magnitude Error (rms), Modulation Type, and TSC measurement. It is a combination of the commands :ABORT; :INITiate; :FETCh:DEMod? The Demodulator measurement must be the active measurement (specified by CONFigure:DEMod). The current measurement can be queried using CONFigure?
Data are returned as nine comma-delimited values: Phase Error (rms), Phase Error (peak), EVM (rms) in %, EVM (peak) in %, Origin Offset in dB, C/I in dB, Magnitude Error (rms) in %, Modulation Type, and TSC. “--” is returned for each data that is not valid at that instance.

Description
Triggers a new PASS/FAIL measurement and returns the results. It is a combination of the commands :ABORT; :INITiate; :FETCh:PFail? The PASS/FAIL measurement must be active. The current measurement can be queried using :CONFigure?

Required Option
40
Description
Triggers a new Power vs. Time (Frame) measurement and returns the results: Channel Power, Burst Power, Average Burst Power, Span, Occupied Bandwidth, Frequency Error, Frequency Error (ppm), Modulation Type, and TSC measurement. It is a combination of the commands :ABORT; :INITiate; :FETCh:PVTFrame? The Power vs. Time (Frame) measurement must be the active measurement (specified by CONFigure:PVTFrame). The current measurement can be queried using CONFigure?
Data are returned as nine comma-delimited values: Channel Power in dBm, Burst Power in dBm, Average Burst Power in dBm, Span in MHz, Occupied Bandwidth in MHz, Frequency Error in MHz, Frequency Error (ppm), Modulation Type, and TSC. “--” is returned for each data that is not valid at that instance.
