none
Comments • The available default units are:
– DBM | DBMW: dB referenced to 1 milliwatt.
– V: Volts. This is equivalent to VPK for time-varying waveforms.
– VPK: Volts peak
– VPP: Volts peak-to-peak
– VRMS: Volts RMS
– W: Watts
For W, DBM, and DBMW, the amplitude is referenced to the
OUTPut[1]:LOAD
value; they are meaningless and therefore unavailable if OUTPut[1]:LOAD INFinity
is set.
• Executable when Initiated: Yes
• Coupling Group: None
• Related Commands: OUTPut[1]:IMPedance, OUTPut[1]:LOAD,
