Command Syntax

:LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit{1:16}:SOURce:TYPE <measurement panel>

Where <measurement panel> can be: {AMPLitude | CRECovery{1:16} | EYE | IEEE | JITTer | LEVel | MTESt{1:16} | OSCilloscope | TDR | NONE}

Where {1:16} identifies one of sixteen limit tests.

Query Syntax

:LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit:SOURce:TYPE?

Description

For the specified measurement limit test 1 through 16, selects the displayed measurement panel from which to select the measurement using the :LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit:SOURce:LOCation command. The following table allows you to look up the proper command argument based on

  • Instrument mode,
  • Displayed measurement panel, and
  • Waveform type.

If no measurements are turned on, NONE is the only valid argument and the query response. Use the :LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit:STATe command to enable the limit test. The measurement panel must be displayed before you can select it.

Example Command Sequence

This example returns the location of the risetime measurement in Eye/Mask mode, which in this example is "3". Then, later in the program, this location index is used to enable limit testing on the risetime measurement.

:MEASure:EYE:RISetime:LOCation?  //  Discover risetime location in table.
:LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit2:SOURce:TYPE EYE  //  Select an Eye Mode test.
:LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit2:SOURce:LOCation 3  //  Select the risetime measurement.
:LTESt:MEASure:MLIMit2:STATe ON  //  turn on risetime limit test 2
