Critical Note: CALCulate commands act on the selected measurement. You can select one measurement for each channel using Calc:Par:MNUM or Calc:Par:Select. Learn more.

CALCulate<cnum>:MARKer:PNOP:BACKoff <num>

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB, M937xA, P937xA (Read-Write) Turns on and sets markers 1, 2, 3, and 4 to calculate various PNOP parameters. Either this command, or the POFFset command, will initiate the PNOP search markers. To turn off the PNOP markers, either turn them off individually or turn them All Off. To search a User Range with the PNOP search, first activate marker 1 and set the desired User Range. Then send CALC:MARK:PNOP:BACK. The user range used with the PNOP search only applies to marker 1 searching for the linear gain value. The other markers may fall outside the user range. See Critical Note
Parameters
<cnum>	Channel number of the measurement. There must be a selected measurement on that channel. If unspecified, <cnum> is set to 1.
<num>	Backoff value. Choose any number between :-500 and 500
