System Command Reference Section
Pattern Generator CLOCK OUT
Pattern Generator CLOCK OUT
In this section the SOURCE2:VOLT and OUTPUT2 commands control the electrical
levels at the CLOCK OUT port. Refer to the next section on page 5-19 for
SOURCE11:VOLT commands which provide the corresponding controls, where
independently available, for the CLOCK OUT port.
NOTE See Handling Coupled Parameters,page2-11.
SOURce2:FREQuency[:CWI:FIXed]? <numeric value>
Queries the bit rate of the measured clock frequency at the input of the Pattern Generator.
Superseded by SENSe6:FREQuency [:CWI:FIXed]? Retained only for backwards
compatibility with Agilent 71600B systems.
SOURce2:VOLTage [:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPLitude] <numeric
value>
Sets the peak to peak value of the clock signal, in units of Volts.
The *RST selection is 500 mV.
SOURce2:VOLTage[LEVel][:IMMediate]:HIGH <numeric value>
This is used to set the dc high output level, in units of Volts.
The *RST selection is 250 mV.
SOURce2:VOLTage:ATTenuation <numeric value>
Specifies, in decibels, the value of external attenuation on the output. This causes the
entered/displayed values to be modified so as to reflect the value of the output on the far
side of the attenuator.
The *RST selection is 0 dB.
SOURce2VOLTage:ECL
Sets the output “AMPLitude” and “HIGH” values to those used for the ECL family. There
is no query form for this command.
