:MEASure:MTESt:THITs?
Query Syntax
:MEASure:MTESt{N}:THITs?
{N} identifies a specific mask and must be a value from 1 to 16. For example, :MTESt2: selects mask 2.
Description
Returns the total number of failed data points during eye mask testing. This number is not directly reported on the Mask Tests results table. For positive margins, this count is equal to the Total Margin Mask Violations reported on the Mask Tests results table (:MEASure:MTESt:MHITS?). For negative margins, this count is equal to the total number of Standard Mask Violations reported on the Mask Tests results table (:MEASure:MTESt:HITS?). To query the total number of failed data points for a margin region (as labeled on the display), use the :MEASure:MTESt:THRegion command.
Measurement Ready?
To confirm that the measurement is ready to read, you can query the measurement's status:
if ('CORR' in Flex.query(':STATus?')):
measurement = Flex.query('?')
If averaging is turned on (:ACQuire:AVERaging), you can also confirm if the measurement result is ready by comparing the number of specified averages (:ACQuire:ECOunt?) versus the number of measurement sweeps that have occurred (:COUNt?). The technique uses the :COUNt? common measurement query. For example,
if (Flex.query(':COUNt?') >= Flex.query(':ACQuire:ECOUNt?')):
measurement = Flex.query('?')
You can also use an acquisition limit lest to test that a number of waveform samples, or pattern acquisitions have completed before returning a measurement. Refer to the :LTESt:ACQuire:CTYPe command.
Common Measurement Child Queries
This command supports the use of the following common measurement queries: :LOCation?, :COUNt?, :MAXimum?, :MINimum?, :MEAN?, and :SDEViation?.
