Applicable Models: E505xA with VNA ports and S96090xB (Write-only) Adds a segment. |
|
Parameters |
|
<cnum> |
Any existing channel number; if unspecified, value is set to 1. |
<n> |
Range number. If unspecified, value is set to 1. |
<s> |
Segment number to add. If unspecified, value is set to 1. Segment numbers must be sequential. If a new number is added where one currently exists, the existing segment and those following are incremented by one. |

Applicable Models: E505xA with VNA ports and S96090xB (Read-Write) Sets the IF Bandwidth for the specified segment. First set SENS:FOM:RANGe:SEGM:BWIDth:CONTrol ON. All subsequent segments that are added assume the new IF Bandwidth value. Valid either for Receiver range or for Primary range when coupled to Receiver. |
|
Parameters |
|
<cnum> |
Any existing channel number; if unspecified, value is set to 1. |
<n> |
Range number. If unspecified, value is set to 1. |
<s> |
Segment number for which to set independent IF Bandwidth. |
<num> |
IF Bandwidth in Hz. The list of valid IF Bandwidths is different depending on the VNA model. See the list of valid IFBW values. If an invalid number is specified, the analyzer will round up to the closest valid number. |
Examples |
