(Write-only) Adds a segment.

Parameters

<cnum>

Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1

<snum>

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.

Examples

Two Segments exist (1 and 2). The following command will add a new segment (1). The existing (1 and 2) will become (2 and 3) respectively.

SENS:SEGM1:ADD
sense2:segment1:add

Query Syntax

Not applicable. Use Sense:Segment:Count to determine the number of segments in a trace.

Default

Not Applicable

(Read-Write) Enables you to setup a segment sweep with arbitrary frequencies. The start and stop frequencies of each segment can overlap other segments. Also, each segment can have a start frequency that is greater than its stop frequency which causes a reverse sweep over that segment. Learn more about Arbitrary Segment Sweep.

Parameters

<cnum>

Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1.

<bool>

ON or 1 - Allows the setup of arbitrary segment sweep.
OFF or 0 - Prevents the setup of arbitrary segment sweep.

Examples

Query Syntax

SENSe<cnum>:SEGMent:ARBitrary?

Return Type

Boolean

Default

OFF or 0

(Read-Write) Sets the IF Bandwidth for the specified segment. First set SENS:SEGM:BANDwidth | BWIDth:CONTrol ON. All subsequent segments that are added assume the new IF Bandwidth value.

Parameters

<cnum>

Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1

<snum>

Segment number to modify. Choose any existing segment number.

<num>

IF Bandwidth in Hz. The list of valid IF Bandwidths is different depending on the VNA model. (Click to see the lists.) If an invalid number is specified, the analyzer will round up to the closest valid number.

Note: This command will accept MIN or MAX instead of a numeric parameter. See SCPI Syntax for more information.

Examples

SENS:SEGM:FREQ:STOP 1MHZ

Query Syntax

(Read-Write) Reads or writes the entire list of values in the segment sweep table.   

Note: For binary data transfer, specify 64-bit instead of 32-bit using FORMat[:DATA].  This is because higher frequencies used on VNA exceed the maximum value that can be represented by a 32-bit floating point number.

When sending/receiving this data as binary (FORMat[:DATA] REAL,64), use FORMat:BORDer to specify the correct 'endianness' (byte ordering) corresponding to your programming environment / computer platform.

Parameters

<cnum>

Any existing channel number. If unspecified, value is set to 1

<snum>

Any existing segment number.

<char>

Choose from:

SSTOP -  Frequency values are Start and Stop for each segment.  

CSPAN -  Frequency values are Center and Span for each segment.

<numSegs>

Total number of sweep segments being input.  This allows the VNA to determine how many values per-each-segment are in the input <data> block.

<data>

A 2-dimensional array of Segment data as a single data block.  The data elements within a segment are each represented as real floating-point numbers as follows, and the data block is formed by interleaving all the segments together consecutively:

1. Segment state (Boolean 1 for ON and 0 for OFF)

2. Number of Points in the segment

3. Start Freq (when <char> is SSTOP), or Center Freq (when <char> is CSPAN)

4. Stop Freq (when <char> is SSTOP), or Freq Span (when <char> is CSPAN)

5. IFBW (optional for the Write)

6. Dwell Time (optional for the Write)

7. Power (optional for the Write) - see below.

The first four data elements must always be supplied. After those values, data must be supplied for successive optional elements. For example, to set dwell time values, you must also supply IFBW values, because IFBW (#5) precedes dwell time (#6) in the array order.

The IF Bandwidth, Sweep Time and Source Power Control settings do NOT affect the order in which elements are interpreted.

The number of elements to supply for Power depends on the following two settings:

1. Source Power Option - ON allows segments to have independent power levels.

2. Couple Ports = Off allows different power levels for each test port.

Examples

SENS:SEGM:LIST SSTOP,1,1,201,10E6,26.5E9,1E3,0,-10 1 segment, state ON, 201 points, 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz, 1kHz IFBW, 0 dwell time, -10 dBm (port powers coupled)

sense2:segment:list? cspan

See Upload and Download a Segment List example program

Query Syntax

SENSe<cnum>:SEGMent:LIST? [char].

If unspecified, char is set to SSTOP.

The number of data elements per segment returned will be 6 + total number of source ports, regardless of the IF Bandwidth, Sweep Time and Source Power Control settings.  For the N5264A, which has no source ports, the query will return just 6 values per segment. For all other VNA models, the last elements in each segment correspond to the power level for each port.

Returns block data in the format specified by FORMat[:DATA].
