The following tables list the members exposed by AnalogChannel.

Public Properties

 NameDescriptionMinimum SW Version
Public PropertyAcquisitionIndexGets the zero based index of which acquisition this channel will be a part of when sequential input channels are being used where the same physical channel can be re-used for sequential acquisitions. This property will return 0 when part of the first acquisition in sequential inputs or when sequential inputs are not being used. (Inherited from Agilent.SA.Vsa.InputChannel)25.00
Public PropertyConnectionGets or sets the input connection type (Single Ended or Differential).  
Public PropertyCouplingGets or sets whether input coupling is AC or DC.  
Public PropertyDisplayNameGets the display name for the input channel. (Inherited from Agilent.SA.Vsa.InputChannel)
Public PropertyEnvelopePaprGets or sets the expected ratio of the peak envelope power to average envelope power. This is defined to be 20 * log10(peak voltage / (RMS value * square root(2))). That means this value is 0 for an unmodulated CW signal. This is currently only used when the RangeOptimization property is set to RangeOptimization.Evm.  26.00
Public PropertyExternalMixerGets a reference to the external mixer setup.  15.00
Public PropertyIdGets the unique identifier for the physical input channel. (Inherited from Agilent.SA.Vsa.InputChannel)
Public PropertyImpedanceGets or sets the impedance for the input connection.  
Public PropertyIsDisposedGets a value indicating whether the object has been disposed. If an object has been disposed any attempt to use it will lead to an ObjectDisposedException being thrown. (Inherited from Agilent.SA.Vsa.RemotableObject)
Public PropertyMixerLevelGets or sets the mixer level offset in dB relative to the factory default setting for the input channel.  
Public PropertyNoiseDistortionTradeoffGets or sets the noise distortion trade-off in dB to use when the RangeOptimization is RangeOptimization.Evm. When setting up the hardware front end for the best EVM the noise portion of the EVM will be weighted by 10^(trade-off/20) and the distortion portion weighted by 1/(10^(trade-off/20)).  26.00
Public PropertyRangeGets or sets the input range (in Vpk) of the input channel.  
Public PropertyRangeInDbmGets or sets the input range (in dBm) of the input channel.  21.20
Public PropertyRangeOptimizationGets or sets the range optimization approach to use when setting range.  26.00
Public PropertyRefImpedanceGets or sets the reference impedance for the channel.  
Public PropertyRefImpedanceIsConnectionGets or sets a value indicating whether the reference impedance follows the connector impedance.

Public Methods

 NameDescriptionMinimum SW Version
Public MethodAutoRangeOverloaded. Performs a one-shot default auto-range operation on the channel.  
Public MethodCreateObjRefCreates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object. (Inherited from System.MarshalByRefObject)
Public MethodForceRebuildKeyMapThis method is used to force a refresh of the key map. This is necessary in cases where the key mappings to the API objects change. This can happen when the index of an item within a collection is reflected in the key name, and an item is removed from the middle of a collection. (Inherited from Agilent.SA.Vsa.RemotableObject)
Public MethodGetLifetimeServiceRetrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from System.MarshalByRefObject)
Public MethodGetValidAutoRangeCriteriaGets a list of auto-range styles supported by the measurement. Each style is the name a scalar measurement result that can be queried from the measurement using this name.  23.00
Public MethodInitializeLifetimeServiceObtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance. (Inherited from Agilent.SA.Vsa.RemotableObject)
Public MethodRangeNearestReturns the nearest valid range (for this channel with the current hardware), in Volts peak, to the one specified.
