250 Agilent N8211A/N8212A Performance Upconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 20 / 40 GHz
8 Basic Function Commands
:LIST:TYPE:LIST:INITialize:PRESet
Supported All
[:SOURce]:LIST:TYPE:LIST:INITialize:PRESet
Replaces the current list sweep data with a factory-defined file consisting of one point at a
frequency, amplitude, and dwell time.
:SWEep:CONTrol:STATe
Supported Option 007
[:SOURce]:SWEep:CONTrol:STATe ON|OFF|1|0
[:SOURce]:SWEep:CONTrol:STATe?
Sets the sweep control state for the N8211A/N8212A in a dual-N8211A/N8212A
ramp sweep setup. When the sweep control is on, you can designate whether the
N8211A/N8212A is operating as the master or the slave. For information on setting
master and slave designations, see “:SWEep:CONTrol:TYPE" on page 250.
The dual-N8211A/N8212A ramp sweep setup uses a serial cable to connect the two
signal generators. This connection enables one N8211A/N8212A to function as the
master so that sweep, bandcross, and retrace times are synchronized between the two.
Each N8211A/N8212A can have a different sweep range, but they must have
identical sweep time settings.
Example
:SWE:CONT:STAT 1
The example sets the sweep control state to on.
*RST 0
:SWEep:CONTrol:TYPE
Supported Option 007
[:SOURce]:SWEep:CONTrol:TYPE MASTer|SLAVe
[:SOURce]:SWEep:CONTrol:TYPE?
In a dual-ramp sweep setup, this command designates whether the N8211A/N8212A is
performing as the master or the slave. The master/slave setup requires two signal
generators from the same instrument family.
NOTE
When you execute this command, the current list sweep data is overwritten. If needed,
save the current data. For information on storing list sweep files, see “:STORe:LIST" on
page 190.
