SUM Subsystem Introduction
[SOURce[1|2]:]SUM:STATe {ON|1|OFF|0}
[SOURce[1|2]:]SUM:STATe?
Disables or enables SUM function.
Parameter Typical Return
{ON|1|OFF|0}, default OFF 0ī(OFF)īorī1ī(ON)
Enable SUM
SUM:STAT ON
l You can synchronize the phase between the primary signal and the SUM signal by sending SOURce[1|2]:PH-
ASe:SYNChronize after setting the functions for the primary signal and the SUM signal. Otherwise, the phase
between the two signals is arbitrary.
l To avoid multiple waveform changes, enable SUM after you have configured the other sum parameters.
l Only one modulation mode may be enabled at a time.
l The instrument will not allow SUM to be enabled when sweep or burst is enabled. When you enable SUM, the
sweep or burst mode is turned off.
l With SUM:STATe ON, the sum amplitude plus the carrier amplitude may not exceed either the programmed limits
or the instrument's output rating. If setting SUM:STATe ON would cause either the output rating or the limits to
be exceeded, SUM:STATe will be set OFF and the instrument will report a settings conflict error.
