The command triggers the measurement with power sensors and provides the power measurement result of the selected power sensor. The value is provided with the unit set with command SENSe:UNIT[:POWer].
For certain power sensors, e.g. R&S NRP-Z81, two values are returned, first the value for the average level and - separated by a comma - the peak level
Note: The local state is not influenced by this command, measurements results can be retrieved with local state on or off. For long measurement times it is recommended to use a SRQ (MAV bit) for command synchronization.

Example: | SENS:UNIT DBM selects unit dBm for presentation of measurement result. READ1?queries the measurement result of the sensor connected to the SENSOR interface. Response: -45.6246576745440230-45.6 dBm were measured at the given frequency. or e.g. for R&S NRP-Z81 Response: -55.62403263352178,-22.419472478812476-55,6 dbm is the measured average level, -22. 4 dBm is the measured peak level at the given frequency | |
