: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:ACLR?
Title
Read Adjacent Channel Leakage Ratio (ACLR)
Description
Triggers a new adjacent channel power ratio measurement and returns the results: main channel power, lower adjacent and upper adjacent channel power, and lower alternate and upper alternate channel power. It is a combination of the commands :ABORT; :INITiate; :FETCh:ACLR? The ACLR measurement must be the active measurement (specified by :CONFigure:RF ACLR). The current measurement can be queried using :CONFigure?
Data are returned as 12 comma-separated values: -20 MHz channel power, -15 MHz channel power, -10 MHz channel power, -5 MHz channel power, Main channel power 1, Main channel power 2, Main channel power 3, Main channel power 4, +5 MHz channel power, +10 MHz channel power, +15 MHz channel power, +20 MHz channel power.
