Spectrum Master Programming Manual : Tracking Generator Commands : :MEASure Subsystem
 
:MEASure Subsystem
These commands take the instrument from its current state, enable the specified measurement, and put the instrument into single sweep mode. They correct any parameters that are invalid given the new measurement state such that a valid measurement can take place. Other settings may be changed. Refer to the documentation of CONFigure for each measurement. These commands then initiate the measurement. When the measurement is complete, they return the result.
To make a measurement with settings other than the “default” measurement settings applied by CONFigure, do the following:
Send the appropriate CONFigure command to set the desired measurement.
Modify the settings as required.
Send the appropriate READ command to measure and return the result.
To get the current measurement data, use the appropriate FETCh command.
:MEASure:TGENerator:POWStats?
Title
Measure Tracking Generator Absolute Statistics
Description
Sets the active measurement to tracking generator with absolute statistics on, sets the default measurement parameters, triggers a new measurement, and returns the results.   
It is a combination of the commands :CONFigure:GENerator:TRACking POWStats and :READ:TGENerator:POWStats?
For a description of the default tracking generator absolute statistics measurement parameters, refer to “:CONFigure:GENerator:TRACking POWStats|TXStats”:CONFigure:GENerator:TRACking POWStats|TXStats :CONFigure?.
To make a tracking generator absolute statistics measurement with settings other than the default values, send:
:CONFigure:GENerator:TRACking POWStats
Commands to set desired settings
:READ:TGENerator POWStats?
Data is returned as 3 comma‑separated values: Maximum Power, Minimum Power, Average Power.
Default Unit
Current amplitude units
Example
To measure tracking generator absolute statistics:
:MEAS:TGEN:POWS?
