Agilent N8211A/N8212A Performance Upconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 250 kHz to 20 / 40 GHz 305
The example sets the phase modulation to 135 degrees.
:PM[1]|2[:DEViation]:TRACk
Supported Option UNT
[:SOURce]:PM[1]|2[:DEViation]:TRACk ON|OFF|1|0
[:SOURce]:PM[1]|2[:DEViation]:TRACk?
Enables or disables the deviation coupling between the PM paths 1 and 2.
ON (1) Links the deviation value of PM1 with PM2; PM2 will assume the PM[1] deviation
value. For example, if PM1 deviation is set to 500 Hz and PM2 is set to 2 kHZ, enabling the
deviation tracking will cause the PM2 deviation value to change to 500 Hz. This applies
regardless of the path (PM1 or PM2) selected in this command.
OFF (0) Disables the coupling and both paths will have independent deviation values.
This command uses exact match tracking, not offset tracking.
Example
:PM1:TRAC OFF
The example disables deviation coupling.
