## Command Syntax

## Query Syntax

    :MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:METHod?

## Description

Selects the General threshold's global upper, middle, and lower waveform threshold definitions using the following arguments:

P105090
  Specifies threshold levels as 10%, 50%, and 90% values between top and base.
P205080
  Specifies threshold levels as 20%, 50%, and 80% values between top and base.
P405060
  Specifies threshold levels as 40%, 50%, and 60% values between top and base.
PERCent
  Specifies thresholds as custom percentages between top and base. To specify the percent values for the upper, middle, and lower thresholds, use the `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:PUPPer`, `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:PMIDdle`, and `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:PLOWer` commands.
HYSTeresis
  Specifies thresholds as a middle level value and a ±hysteresis value. The upper limit for the measurement is the middle level plus the hysteresis value. The lower limit for the measurement is the middle level minus the hysteresis value. To specify the middle and ±hysteresis values, use the `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:MIDDle` and `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:HYSTeresis` commands.
ABSolute
  Specifies thresholds as absolute upper, middle, and lower vertical values. To specify the values, use the `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:UPPer`, `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:MIDDle`, and `:MEASure:THReshold:GENeral:LOWer` commands.
  Selects custom user-defined threshold definitions based on absolute unit amplitudes.
