280 Agilent N8211A/N8212A Performance Upconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 20 / 40 GHz
9 Analog Commands
Sets the AM type to linear or exponential AM.
LINear Selects linear AM type with depth values in units of percent/volt.
EXPonential Selects exponential AM type with depth values in units of dB/volt.
Example
:AM2:TYPE EXP
The example selects exponential type depth values for AM path 2.
*RST LIN
:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh]:EXPonential
Supported Option UNT
[:SOURce]:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh]:EXPonential <val>
[:SOURce]:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh]:EXPonential?
Sets the AM depth in dB/volt units. EXPonential must be the current AM type for this
command to have any affect. Refer to “:AM[1]|2:TYPE" on page 279 for setting the AM
type.
Example
:AM2:EXP 20
The example sets the exponential depth to 20 dB for AM path 2.
*RST +4.00000000E+001
Range 0.00–40.00 dB
:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh][:LINear]
Supported Option UNT
[:SOURce]:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh][:LINear] <val>|UP|DOWN
[:SOURce]:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh][:LINear]?
Sets the AM depth in percent/volt units. The command, used with the UP|DOWN
parameters, will change the depth by a user-defined step value. Refer to the
“:AM[:DEPTh]:STEP[:INCRement]" on page 281 for setting the value associated with the
UP and DOWN choices.
