We have an MSO-X 4154A oscilloscope in the lab.. I am curious how I can turn the "Meas" and "Cursor" button of the oscilloscope on programmatically?. I am using Visual Studio 2015 and VisaCom. I have tried sending ":RUN", ":MEAS" commands but the measurement does not seem to start. Thanks.
Installing any valid measurements will automatically enable measurements, as if you pressed the [Meas] key. For example, send ":MEAS:FREQ CHAN1". Note that this is different than ":MEAS:FREQ? CHAN1", which just performs the query.
To enable markers, use ":MARKER:MODE <mode>".
