:MEASure:EYE:PAM:ELEVel
Command Syntax
:MEASure:EYE:PAM:ELEVel
Query Syntax
:MEASure:EYE:PAM:ELEVel?
Description
Starts the Eye PAM Level measurement where the center amplitude of the selected eye (vertical center) of a PAM signal is measured. Select the eye to be measured using the :MEASure:EYE:PAM:ELEVel:EYE child command. To measure the eye levels for all of the eyes on a PAM signal, you must send this command once for each eye as there is no command for simultaneously measuring all eye levels. The query form of the command returns the measured value.
Use the :MEASure:EYE:PAM:ELEVel:SOURce command to specify the real-time eye diagram on which to make the measurement.
