This section describes the point delay for DC control delay, DC power delay, and common settings of E5052B. For more information about RF Power measurement settings, see Confirming Result of RF Power Measurement.
The following section describes how to set up DC control delay and point delay. For better understanding of each delay, "a," "b," "c" and "e" and the measurement point “d” used in the description below, refer to Delay While DC Control Selected for Sweep Parameter.
"a" signifies the delay until measurement of the first point starts in the single sweep, or the delay until measurement of the first point of the first sweep in the continuous sweep. This delay is equal to the addition of the setting times of DC control delay and point delay.
"b" signifies the individual delay between respective measurement points. The setting times of point delay is set as this delay.
"c" signifies the time that elapses when the setting of the voltage (DC Control Stop) at the last measurement point (“d”) of the sweep is different from the setting value of DC Control Voltage. This time is required for generating the DC Control Voltage. It is not generated when the voltage setting of the DC Control Stop (Start/Center (Stop/Span) > DC Control Stop) and that of the DC Control Voltage (DC Control > DC Control Voltage) is same.
"e" is signifies the time that elapses to set the voltage back to the starting voltage for next sweep in the continuous sweep. This time is required for setting of the DC Power Delay is completed.
Delay While DC Control Selected for Sweep Parameter
If the output voltage falls 0 V or exceeds 20 V, the setting time of DC control delay will be set as the delay, after the voltage is output.

Delay While DC power is Selected for Sweep Parameter
In the tester mode, measurement is made for only one measurement point. The delay for the measurement point can be set by using a point delay setting.
