The name of the PNA being used to make the measurements.

Success or failure.    If the function fails use GetErrorMessage to get the specific errors associated wit the failure.

success AmbMeasure(char* ambName, char* pnaName, EAmbMeasureType measureType);


The operator must first put the hardware in the correct state and then initiate the measurement using this function. After the measurement is made a file is created that is utilized in the AmbCalculate function. The name of this file can be obtained using the AmbFilename function. Note that both the thru and the short measurement needs to be made before the AMB split calculation can be performed.
