[srcPort]

String. (NOT case sensitive). Source port. Optional. Use SOUR:CAT? to return a list of valid port names.

While this argument can be used to make settings for ALL ports, it is designed to access ports such as an external source, true mode balanced port, or one of the Source 2 outputs on the 2-port 2-source PNA-X model such as "Port 1 Src2".

(Read-Write) Sets and reads the NPR notch offset frequency of the selected notch. This offset is the center frequency of the selected notch relative to the LO carrier frequency. Typically, the notch will have a 0 Hz offset, meaning it is centered on the LO carrier. If you have more than one notch, you can offset some of the notches from the carrier. For example, if you have three notches 1 MHz wide, you might set their offsets to -10 MHz, 0 MHz and +10 MHz so that they are spaced across the wideband carrier.
