Measurement number for each measurement. There must be a selected measurement on the trace. If unspecified, <mnum> is set to 1.

<dataFormat>

Choose MLOG.

<units>

For unratioed measurements, choose from:

  • DBM  Units are displayed in dBm.  0 dBm = 0.001 watt

  • DBMV Units are displayed in dBmV.  0 dBmV = 0.001 volt
