CALCulate<cnum>:MEASure<mnum>:RLIMit:DATA <data>

Applicable Models: All

(Read-Write) Sets or returns the ripple limit table for the active trace of selected channel.

Parameters

 

<cnum>

Channel number of the measurement (optinal).

<mnum>

Measurement number for each measurement.

<data>

Indicates the array data (for ripple line) of 1 + Num (number of limit lines)* 4. Where n is an integer between 1 and Num.

  • Data(0) :The number of limit lines you want to set. Specify an integer ranging 0 to 12. When the number of limit lines is set to 0 (clears the limit table), the variable Data is only required with Data(0).

  • Data(nx4-3) :The type of the n-th line.

Specify an integer 0 to 1 as follows.

0: OFF

1: ON

  • Data(nx4-2) :The value on the horizontal axis (frequency/power/time) of the start point of the n-th line.

  • Data(nx4-1) :The value on the horizontal axis (frequency/power/time) of the end point of the n-th line.

  • Data(nx4) :The ripple line value (dB) of the n-th line.

The index of the array starts from 0.
