8.7.3.44 FETC? <channel>
Example command: FETCH? 4
Example response: 231.92811,C,4,2009-03-23 14:33:20
Reads a channel’s latest measurement.
The <channel> parameter may be 1 through 4 for corresponding front channel inputs, 5 through 14 for chan-
nels of a rst attached scanner, or 15 through 24 for channels of a second attached scanner. If the <channel>
parameter is omitted, the latest measurement regardless of channel is returned.
If a measurement is available, the response is given in the following format:
<measurement value>,<unit>,<channel number>,<date and time>
<measurement value> is the value of the measurement. It may be a temperature, resistance, or resistance ratio.
The number of decimal places depends on the measured parameter. Trailing zeros are omitted.
<unit> may be “C”, “F”, or “K” for a temperature measurement; “O” for a resistance measurement, or “R” for
a resistance ratio measurement.
<channel number> is 1 through 4 for corresponding front channel inputs, 5 through 14 for channels of a rst
scanner, or 15 through 24 for channels of a second scanner.
<time and date> gives the time and date of the measurement, separated by one space. The time is in 24-hour
format. The date is in the format YYYY-MM-DD.
If no measurement is available, no response is returned and error code -230, “Data corrupt or stale,” is gener-
ated in the error queue. The command STAT:OPER? may be used rst to determine whether a new measure-
ment has completed, and command STAT:QUES:COND? may be used to determine whether the new measure-
ment is valid before an attempt is made to read it.
