CALCulate<cnum>:MEASure<mnum>:MARKer<mkr>:Y?

Applicable Models: All

(Read-only) Reads the marker's Y-axis value. The format of the value depends on the current CALC:MEAS:MARK:FORMAT setting. If the marker is set as delta, the data is relative to the reference marker. The query always returns two numbers:

Note: To accurately read the marker Y-axis value with trace smoothing applied, the requested format must match the displayed format. Otherwise, the returned value is un-smoothed data. For example, to read the smoothed marker value when measuring group delay, both the display format and the marker format must be set to (Group) Delay.
