SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:AUTO <bool>

Applicable Models: All

(Write-Read) When set to ON, calculates the gate values automatically when the SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:INITialize command is sent. As a result, user-defined Gate Start and Gate Stop values are not used and their Couple state is disabled.

Parameters

 

<bool>

ON (or 1) - Couple all gate start times to the same value.

OFF (or 0) - Do not couple all gate start times to the same value.

Examples

SYST:CAL:CAL:GATE:AUTO 1

Query Syntax

SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:AUTO?

Return Type

Boolean

Default

OFF or 0


SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STARt <value>

Applicable Models: All

(Write-Read) Sets and returns the gate start value for time domain gating.

Parameters

 

<value>

Gate start time.

Examples

SYST:CAL:CAL:GATE:STAR -1ns

Query Syntax

SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STARt?

Return Type

Numeric

Default

-1ns


SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STARt:COUPle[:STATe] <bool>

Applicable Models: All

(Write-Read) Sets and returns the state of gate coupling for gate start value. Enabling this function couples all gate start times to the same value set using the SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STARt command.

Parameters

 

<bool>

ON (or 1) - Couple all gate start times to the same value.

OFF (or 0) - Do not couple all gate start times to the same value.

Examples

SYST:CAL:CAL:GATE:STAR:COUP:STAT 1

Query Syntax

SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STARt:COUPle[:STATe]?

Return Type

Boolean

Default

OFF or 0


SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STOP <value>

Applicable Models: All

(Write-Read) Sets and returns the gate stop value for time domain gating.

Parameters

 

<value>

Gate stop time.

Examples

SYST:CAL:CAL:GATE:STop 1ns

SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STOP?

Return Type

Numeric

Default

+1ns


SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STOP:COUPle[:STATe] <bool>

Applicable Models: All

(Write-Read) Sets and returns the state of gate coupling for gate stop value. Enabling this function couples all gate stop times to the same value set using the SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STOP command.

Parameters

 

<bool>

ON (or 1) - Couple all gate stop times to the same value.

OFF (or 0) - Do not couple all gate stop times to the same value.

Examples

SYST:CAL:CAL:GATE:STOP:COUP:STAT 1

Query Syntax

SYSTem:CALibrate:CALupdate:GATE:STOP:COUPle[:STATe]?

Return Type

Boolean

Default

OFF or 0
