Basic Function Commands 8
Agilent N8211A/N8212A Performance Upconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 20 / 40 GHz 259
Power Subsystem ([:SOURce]:POWer)
:ALC:BANDwidth|BWIDth
Supported All
[:SOURce]:POWer:ALC:BANDwidth|BWIDth <num>[<freq_suffix>]
[:SOURce]:POWer:ALC:BANDwidth|BWIDth?
Sets the bandwidth of the automatic leveling control (ALC) loop. You can select bandwidths
of 100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, or 100 kHz. If you do not specify one of these exact bandwidths,
your entry rounds to the nearest acceptable value.
For an N8212A, the bandwidth choices for this command are not effective if an internal I/Q
source is being used.
Example
:POW:ALC:BWID 1KHZ
The example sets the ALC bandwidth to 1 kHz.
*RST 100.0
Key Entry ALC BW
:ALC:BANDwidth|BWIDth:AUTO
Supported All
[:SOURce]:POWer:ALC:BANDwidth|BWIDth:AUTO ON|OFF|1|0
[:SOURce]:POWer:ALC:BANDwidth|BWIDth:AUTO?
Sets the state of the automatic leveling control (ALC) automatic bandwidth function. When
this state is turned on, the N8211A/N8212A automatically selects the optimum bandwidth
for the ALC.
Example
:POW:ALC:BWID:AUTO 0
The example disables the automatic bandwidth optimizing function.
