:CALCulate[1] Subsystem

Performs post-acquisition math (scale/offset) processing (on the data acquired by

a SENSe function) and data transfer of the scaled/offset result. See the :TRACe

subsystem for commands used to set the scale and offset.

Not until :CALCulate[1]:MATH:STATe is set to ON will any of the

:CALCulate[1] settings or :TRACe[:DATA] settings be used.

:CALCulate[1]:DATA?

Queries the current scaled and offset measurement result .

• Result will be formatted according to :FORMat[:DATA] ASCii | REAL

setting.

• When ASCii format is used, numeric data is transferred as ASCII bytes in

<NR3> format. The number of significant digits will range from 1 to 15,

depending on the measurement resolution. Only significant digits will be

returned.

• If no valid result exists, Not a Number 9.91E37 is returned and error -230 is

generated.

• If the current measurement is Totalize or Voltage Peaks, Not a Number

9.91E37 is returned and error -221 is generated.

• Query only.

• If this command is issued when math is enabled and while a measurement is in

progress, no response will be produced until the measurement completes.

• This command holds off subsequent commands from being processed until a

measurement completes. This holdoff action can only be canceled by the

measurement completing, a device clear, or power cycle.

• The last calculated result remains valid until a new computation is made or a

relevant instrument state is modified.
