:MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:STATus:REASon?

Query Syntax

:MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:STATus:REASon?

Query Response

Refer to the table "Possible Common :STATus:REASon? Query Responses".

Description

Returns a string with information about :EYE:NMARgin measurement. If the measurement fails, a short string is returned that describes the failure and additional information may be available using the :STATus:DETails? sibling query. If the measurement correctly completes without errors, a truncated string of additional measurement information is returned as explained in :EYE:NMARgin. The full contents of the string can be returned using the :STATus:DETails? query. This behavour of returning information for a successful measurement is unique to this measurement.

Use the :EYE:NMARgin:STATus? parent query to determine if the measurement has passed or failed.

Measurement Identification

Avoid subtle programming errors! To ensure that the correct measurement is installed or queried, always explicitly identify a measurement when installing a measurement or querying a measured value, status, or detail. To identify a measurement, specify the measurement's source waveform (:SOURce child command). With some measurements, you may also need to specify other identifying values. Generally, when selecting a measurement using FlexDCA's GUI, if a dialog appears prompting you to select values, you should explicitly specify these values when remotely identifying the measurement. More information.

For example, to return the status of the measurement, :MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:

flex.write(':MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:SOURce CHAN1A')
if flex.query(':MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:STATus?') == 'CORR';
    measurement = flex.query(':MEASure:EYE:NMARgin?')
else:
	details = flex.query(':MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:STATus:DETails?')
	reason = flex.query(':MEASure:EYE:NMARgin:STATus:REASon?')
