[:SENSe]:FREQuency:CENTer
Syntax
[:SENSe]:FREQuency:CENTer <freq>
[:SENSe]:FREQuency:CENTer?
Description
Sets the center frequency.
Queries the center frequency.
Parameter
Name
Type
Range
Default
<freq>
Consecutive Real
Number
GPSA mode
0 Hz to Fmax
[1]
(zero span)
50 Hz to (Fmax - 50 Hz) (non-zero span)
[2]
Fmax/2
RTSA mode
2.5 kHz to (Fmax - 2.5 kHz)
Note
[1]
: Fmax (maximum measurement frequency) is determined by the model of the spectrum analyzer. The
maximum frequency of RSA3030/RSA3030-TG is 3 GHz, and the maximum frequency of RSA3045/RSA3045-TG is 4.5
GHz.
Note
[2]
: In non-zero span, if the option RSA3030-BW1 is installed, its range is from 5 Hz to (Fmax – 5 Hz).
Return Format
The query returns the center frequency in scientific notation. The unit is Hz.
Example
The following command sets the center frequency to 1 MHz.
:SENSe:FREQuency:CENTer 1000000
The following query returns 1.000000000e+06.
:SENSe:FREQuency:CENTer?

[:SENSe]:FREQuency:CENTer:STEP:AUTO?
Description
Enables or disables the auto setting mode of the CF step.
Queries the status of the auto setting mode of the CF step.
Parameter

Bool
OFF|ON|0|1
ON|1
Return Format
The query returns 0 or 1.
Example
The following command enables the auto setting mode of the CF step.
:SENSe:FREQuency:CENTer:STEP:AUTO ON or :SENSe:FREQuency:CENTer:STEP:AUTO 1
The following query returns 1.
