MeasurementReflevelPercentMidItem

Bases: ValidatedDynamicNumberCmd, SCPICmdWrite, SCPICmdRead

The MEASUrement:REFLevel:PERCent:MID<x> command.

Description
  • This command specifies the percent (where 100% is equal to HIGH) that is used to calculate a mid reference level. There are two mid reference levels; thus, MID can be either MID1 or MID2. This command applies when the command MEASUREMENT:REFLEVEL:METHOD has been set to Percent. This command is equivalent to setting the Reference Levels in the MEASURE menu on the oscilloscope front panel.
Usage
  • Using the .query() method will send the MEASUrement:REFLevel:PERCent:MID<x>? query.
  • Using the .verify(value) method will send the MEASUrement:REFLevel:PERCent:MID<x>? query and raise an AssertionError if the returned value does not match value.
  • Using the .write(value) method will send the MEASUrement:REFLevel:PERCent:MID<x> value command.
SCPI Syntax 
- MEASUrement:REFLevel:PERCent:MID<x> <NR3>
- MEASUrement:REFLevel:PERCent:MID<x>?
Info
  • <NR3> is a floating point number that specifies the mid reference level, ranging from 0 to 100%. The default mid reference level is 50%.
