SCPI COMMAND SUMMARY
The coupling equations for p ower sweep are exactly analogous to
those for frequency sweep. Power sweep is allo wed to b e negative,
unlike frequency sweeps. See
FREQ:CENT
for a description. *RST
value is 0 dBm.
POWer[:LEVel] <num>[lvl suffix]|MAXimum|MINimum|UP|DOWN
POWer[:LEVel]? [MAXimum|MINimum]
Sets and queries the output level. Default units and units
for the query resp onse are determined by the
UNIT:POWer
command. Maximum and minimum levels refer to the
leveling mo de at the time the command is sent. For example,
*RST;POWer:LEVel MIN; ALC:SOURce MMHead
has dierent eects
from
*RST;POWer:ALC:SOURce MMHead; POWer:LEVel MIN
After *RST, the value is 0 dBm.
POWer:MODE FIXed|SWEep
POWer:MODE?
Sets and queries the setting of the p o
wer sweep mo de switch. If in
the sweep mo de then the output level is controlled by the start,
stop, center and span functions. If in the xed p o
wer mo de then the
output is controlled by the
POW[:LEVEL]
command. The *RST value
is
FIXed
.
POWer:OFFSet <num>[DB]|MAXimum|MINimum|UP|DOWN
POWer:OFFSet? [MAXimum|MINimum]
Sets and queries the power oset. This function changes mapping of
absolute power parameters on input to and output from the sw
ept
signal generator. Changing this do es not aect the output po
wer of
the swept signal generator. Only the displayed parameters and query
responses are changed. The equation implied by this is:
The entered or displayed p ower = Hardware Power + Oset After
*RST, the value is 0.
POWer:OFFSet:STATe ON|OFF|1|0
POWer:OFFSet:STATe?
Queries and turns the p ower oset o and on. After *RST, the
setting is
OFF
.
POWer:RANGe <num>[lvl suffix]|MAXimum|MINimum|UP|DOWN
POWer:RANGe?
Sets and queries the setting of the p ower meter range. This is used
when the command
POWer:ALC:SOURce
is set to
PMETer
.
POWer:SEARch ON|OFF|1|0|ONCE
POWer:SEARch?
Sets and queries the power search switch. This has an interaction
with
POWer:ALC:STATe
as describ ed below.
