Agilent N8211A/N8212A Performance Upconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 20 / 40 GHz 281
LINear 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 measurement type. When the depth
values are coupled, a change made to one path is applied to both. For AM depth value
coupling, refer to the command “:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh][:LINear]:TRACk" on page 281.
Example
:AM2 20
The example sets the AM path 2 linear depth to 20%.

Supported Option UNT
[:SOURce]:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh][:LINear]:TRACk ON|OFF|1|0
[:SOURce]:AM[1]|2[:DEPTh][:LINear]:TRACk?
Enables or disables AM depth value coupling between AM paths 1 and 2. When the depth
values are coupled, a change made to one path is applied to both. LINear must be the AM
type for this command to have any affect. Refer to “:AM[1]|2:TYPE" on page 279 for setting
the AM type.
ON (1) Links the depth value of AM[1] with AM2; AM2 will assume the AM[1] depth
value. For example, if AM[1] depth is set to 15% and AM2 is set to 11%, enabling the depth
tracking will cause the AM2 depth value to change to 15%. This applies regardless of the
path (AM[1] or AM2) selected in this command
OFF (0) Disables coupling and both paths will have independent depth values.
Example
:AM1:TRAC ON
The example enables AM depth coupling between AM path 1 and AM path 2.
