Sense:Offset Commands Superseded

Note: These commands are replaced by the Sense:FOM commands which include the features of the new FOM dialog. Although these old commands will continue to work, they can NOT be mixed with the new commands.

Sets the offset frequency functions, causing the stimulus and response frequencies to be different.

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:CW <bool>

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Write) Turns stimulus CW Override mode ON or OFF. Use this setting to establish a fixed (CW) stimulus frequency while measuring the Response over a swept frequency range.
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
<bool>	ON (or 1) - turns CW override ON. OFF (or 0) - turns CW overide OFF.
Examples	SENS:OFFS:CW ON sense2:offset:cw off
Query Syntax	SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:CW?
Return Type	Boolean
Default	OFF

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:DIVisor <num>

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Write) Specifies (along with the multiplier) the value to multiply by the stimulus.
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
<num>	Divisor value. Range is 1 to 1000
Examples	SENS:OFFS:DIV 3 sense2:offset:divisor 2
Query Syntax	SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:DIVisor?
Return Type	Numeric
Default	1

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:MULTiplier <num>

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Write) Specifies (along with the divisor) the value to multiply by the stimulus.
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
<num>	Multiplier value. Range is +/- 1000. Negative multipliers cause the stimulus to sweep in decreasing direction. For mixer measurements, this would be for setups requiring the RF frequency to be less than LO frequency
Examples	SENS:OFFS:MULT 2 sense2:offset:multiplier 4
Query Syntax	SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:MULTplier?
Return Type	Numeric
Default	1

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:OFFSet <num>

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Write) Specifies an absolute offset frequency in Hz. For mixer measurements, this would be the LO frequency.
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
<num>	Offset frequency. Range is +/- 1000 GHz. Offsets can be positive or negative
Examples	SENS:OFFS:OFFS 1GHz sense2:offset:offset 1e9
Query Syntax	SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:OFFSet?
Return Type	Numeric
Default	0 Hz

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:STARt?

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Only) Returns the response start frequency
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
Examples	SENS:OFFS:STAR? sense2:offset:start?
Return Type	Numeric
Default	Not applicable

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:[STATe] <bool>

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Write) Enables Frequency Offset Mode on ALL measurements that are present on the active channel. This immediately causes the source and receiver to tune to separate frequencies. The receiver frequencies are specified with the other SENS:OFFSet commands. To make the stimulus settings use the SENS:FREQ commands. Tip: To avoid unnecessary errors, first make other offset frequency settings, then set Frequency Offset ON.
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
<bool>	ON (or 1) - turns Frequency Offset ON. OFF (or 0) - turns Frequency Offset OFF.
Examples	SENS:OFFS ON sense2:offset:state off
Query Syntax	SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:[STATe]?
Return Type	Boolean
Default	OFF (0)

SENSe<cnum>:OFFSet:STOP?

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB (Read-Only) Returns the response stop frequency.
Parameters
<cnum>	Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1
Examples	SENS:OFFS:STOP sense2:offset:stop
Return Type	Numeric
Default	Not applicable
