Control:Multiplexer Commands

CONTrol:MULTiplexer:

OUTPut

| A|B|C|D[DATA]

| A|B|C|D:VOLTage[DATA]

PORT

| [:SELect]

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB, E5080A

(Read-Write) Sets or returns the output port data for specified group with id of the E5092A multiport test set.

Note: This command performs an immediate setting of the specified data on the indicated test set, as opposed to the SENSe<cnum>:MULTiplexer<id>:OUTPut:<grp>[:DATA] <num> command which sets the data only at the beginning of each sweep of the specified channel number ‘cnum’.

Parameters

<id>

Id of the external test set either 1 or 2. If unspecified, Id is assumed to be 1. Must be previously set by the SENS:MULT:TYPE command.

<grp>

A | B | C | D

<num>

An integer specifying the decimal value of the control line. Values are obtained by adding weights from the following table that correspond to individual lines.

The output port data range is between 0 to 255 (0=All lines are turned OFF and 255 all lines are turned ON).

Examples

CONT:MULT1:OUTP:B 8

Query Syntax

CONTrol:MULTiplexer<id>:OUTPut:<grp>[:DATa]?

Return Type

Numeric

Default

0

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB, E5080A

(Read-Write) Sets or returns the output voltage for specified group with id of the E5092A multiport test set.

Note: This command performs an immediate setting of the specified voltage on the indicated test set, as opposed to the SENSe<cnum>:MULTiplexer<id>:OUTPut:<grp>:VOLTage[:DATA] <volt> command which sets the voltage only at the beginning of each sweep of the specified channel number ‘cnum’.

Parameters

<id>

Id of the external test set either 1 or 2. If unspecified, Id is assumed to be 1. Must be previously set by the SENS:MULT:TYPE command.

<grp>

A | B | C | D

<volt>

Output voltage range for <grp> is between 0 to 5.2V and resolution is 10mV.

Examples

CONT:MULT1:OUTP:B:VOLT 4.2

Query Syntax

CONTrol:MULTiplexer<id>:OUTPut:<grp>:VOLtage[:DATa]?

Return Type

Numeric

Default

0 V

Applicable Models: N522xB, N523xB, N524xB, E5080A

(Write-Only) Sets the multiport test set port. If this command creates a conflict with an existing port, the VNA will resolve the conflict.

Note: This command performs an immediate setting of the specified port on the indicated test set, as opposed to the SENSe<cnum>:MULTiplexer<id>:PORT<pnum>:SELect <string> command which sets the port only at the beginning of each sweep of the specified channel number ‘cnum’.

Parameters

<id>

Id of the external test set. If unspecified, Id is assumed to be 1. Must be previously set by the SENSe:MULT:TYPE command.

<pnum>

Integer - Logical port number. The range is 1 to 20.

<string>

Physical port number.

Examples

CONT:MULT1:PORT3:SEL "4" 'sets logical port 3 to physical port 4.

Return Type

String

Default
