This command, like a watch window, will report the last reflector position received by SA. It does not trigger a mea- surement from the instrument. The time duration is an approximate time, roughly accurate to the second and should not be confused with the precise controller times recorded in the measurement details of some instruments. This is for relative reference only and was added with longer term remote monitoring applications in mind.
