SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(1).COUNt
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Object Type | Property (read/write) |
| Data Type | Long |
| Target | The active trace of channel Ch, Ch: channel number 1–16 (see Table 1 on page 25) |
| Description | The number of the turned ON markers. Writing value from 1 to 15 will turn ON regular markers. Writing value 16 will turn ON 15 regular markers and the reference marker. Turning ON the reference marker switches all markers to the relative measurement mode. |
| Range | from 0 to 16 |
| Out of Range | Sets the value of the limit, which is closer to the specified value. |
| Preset Value | 0 |
| Syntax | Dim MarkerCnt As Long MarkerCnt = app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer.COUNt app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer.COUNt = 5 |
| Warning | Object MARKer has an index. In Visual Basic the index is 1 by default when it is omitted. The index can not be omitted in other programming languages. |
| Equivalent Softkeys | None |
SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).STATe
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Object Type | Property (read/write) |
| Data Type | Boolean |
| Target | Marker Mk of the active trace of channel Ch, Ch: channel number 1–16 (see Table 1 on page 25) Mk: marker number 1–15, or reference marker number 16 (see Table 4 on page 74) |
| Description | The ON/OFF state of a marker. Turning ON a marker with the number from 1 to 15 will turn ON all the markers of smaller numbers. Turning OFF a marker with the number from 1 to 15 will turn OFF all the markers of greater numbers (except for the reference marker). Turning ON/OFF the reference marker with number 16 does not turn ON/OFF the markers with the numbers from 1 to 15, but switches these markers to the relative measurement mode. |
| Allowable Values | True: Marker ON False: Marker OFF |
| Preset Value | False |
| Syntax | Dim Status As Boolean Status = app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).STATe app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).STATe = true |

SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(1).REFerence.STATe
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Object Type | Property (read/write) |
| Data Type | Boolean |
| Target | The active trace of channel Ch, Ch: channel number 1–16 (see Table 1 on page 25) |
| Description | The ON/OFF state of the reference marker. When the reference marker is turned ON, all the values of the other markers turn to relative values. |
| Allowable Values | True: Reference marker ON False: Reference marker OFF |
| Preset Value | False |
| Syntax | Dim Status As Boolean Status = app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer.REFerence.STATe app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer.REFerence.STATe = true |
| Warning | Object MARKer has an index. In Visual Basic the index is 1 by default when it is omitted. The index can not be omitted in other programming languages. |

SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).ACTivate
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Object Type | Method |
| Target | Marker Mk of the active trace of channel Ch, Ch: channel number 1–16 (see Table 1 on page 25) Mk: marker number 1–15, or reference marker number 16 (see Table 4 on page 74) |
| Description | Sets the active marker. If a marker is OFF this function will turn it ON. Turning ON a marker with the number from 1 to 15 will turn ON all the markers of smaller numbers. Turning ON the reference marker with number 16 does not turn ON the markers with the numbers from 1 to 15, but switches these markers to the relative measurement mode. |
| Syntax | app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).ACTivate |
| Equivalent Softkeys | Markers > Select > Marker n Markers > Reference Marker |
| Table 4. Mk: Marker Number | |
| Data Type | Long |
| Description | Marker number. Numbers from 1 to 15 are for regular markers, number 16 is for the reference marker. |
| Range | from 1 to 16 |
| Out of Range | An error occurs. Error code: 203. |
| Notes | If the marker number is not specified, it is taken as equal to 1. |
SCPI.SERVice.CHANnel(Ch).TRACe(Tr).MARKer.ACTive
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Object Type | Property (read only) |
| Data Type | Long |
| Target | The specified trace Tr of channel Ch, Tr: trace number 1–16 (see Table 3 on page 33) Ch: channel number 1–16 (see Table 1 on page 25) |
| Description | The active marker number of the specified trace of the specified channel. Syntax Dim Value As Long Value = app.SCPI.SERVice.CHANnel(Ch).TRACe.ACTive |
| Equivalent Softkeys | None |
SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).X
| Attribute | Detail |
|---|---|
| Object Type | Property (read/write) |
| Data Type | Double |
| Target | Marker Mk of the active trace of channel Ch, Ch: channel number 1–16 (see Table 1 on page 25) Mk: marker number 1–15, or reference marker number 16 (see Table 4 on page 74) |
| Description | The stimulus value of the marker. |
| Range | From the stimulus current start value to the stimulus current stop value. Out of Value Sets the value of the limit, which is closer to the specified value. |
| Preset Value | Stimulus center value |
| Unit | Hz (Hertz) / s (second) / dBm (decibels above 1 milliwatt) |
| Syntax | Dim Value As Double Value = app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).X app.SCPI.CALCulate(Ch).SELected.MARKer(Mk).X = 1e9 |
