• RE: MSO56: Setting up delay measurement via SCPI commands

    Confirmed on my MSO56 that the following works as expected for delay measurement between rising edge of CH6_D0 and falling edge of CH4:
    MEASU:ADDN "MEAS1"
    MEASU:MEAS1:TYPE DELAY
    MEASU:MEAS1:SOU1 CH6_D0
    MEASU:MEAS1:DEL:EDGE1 RISE
    MEASU:MEAS1:SOU2 CH4
    MEASU:MEAS1:DEL:EDGE2 FALL
  • RE: MSO56: Setting up delay measurement via SCPI commands

    Thank you for the response.

    Can you confirm that the to/from numbering is backwards between the <x> in MEASU:MEAS1:SOUrce<x> and MEASU:MEAS1:DELay:EDGE<x> ?

    e.g. to configure a delay from CH5_D0 rising edge to CH1 falling edge:
    MEASU:ADDN "MEAS1"
    MEASU:MEAS1:TYPE DELAY
    
    MEASU:MEAS1:SOU1 CH5_D0
    MEASU:MEAS1:DEL:EDGE2 RISE
    
    MEASU:MEAS1:SOU2 CH1
    MEASU:MEAS1:DEL:EDGE1 FALL
    

    or is one of these backwards?

    Shoot, looks like I screwed up the formatting when I tried to edit my question...

    attempted to fix - but if mods could take it back to v1 before I ever edited it, the formatting was much better...
  • MSO56: Setting up delay measurement via SCPI commands

    How can I set up a delay measurement between 2 channels using SCPI commands?

    In the programming manual I see the following relevant commands:

    MEASUrement:ADDMEAS

    MEASU:MEAS<x>:TYPe DELAY

    MEASUrement:MEAS:SOUrce<x>

    MEASUrement:MEAS:DELay:EDGE<x>

    Since a delay must be taken between 2 sources, am I to assume that the <x> in SOUrce<x> should correspond to the "from" and "to" source channels? SOUrce1 and SOUrce2 respectively? or maybe vice versa matching EDGE<x>:

    "This command sets or queries the 'to edge' type when EDGE is EDGE1 and the 'from edge' type when EDGE is EDG2, for the measurement when the measurement type is DELAY. Measurements are specified by x."

    As an example, I am trying to get the delay between a digital channel and analog channel as a propagation delay measurement. Let's say the digital channel (delay 'from') is CH5_D0 and the analog channel (delay 'to') is CH1. Would the following work? or do I have SOU1/SOU2 reversed maybe?

    MEASU:ADDMEAS MEAS1

    MEASU:MEAS1:TYPE DELAY

    MEASU:MEAS1:SOU1 CH5_D0

    MEASU:MEAS1:SOU2 CH1

    Thanks
