Command Syntax

:SPRocessN:DDEConvolve:FNAMe "<path substitution string>\subfolder\filename"

Where:

  • N identifies one of up to 64 possible operators {1:64} that can be defined as part of a math function. The operators are numbered in the order that they were originally added to the function.
  • "<path substitution string> is a string that expands into a specific file path. For example, %USER_DATA_DIR%.
  • "subfolder" is an optional path folder. For example, %USER_DATA_DIR%\S-Parameter Data.
  • "filename" is a string without the filename extension.

Query Syntax

:SPRocessN:DDEConvolve:FNAMe?

Description

Specifies an S-parameter file for a Remove s4p operator (:FUNCtion:FOPerator DDEConvolve). These S-parameter files use the filename extension of .s4p. Before you can use this operator, you must create an S-parameter file of the device to be removed. Use the :SPRocess:DDEConvolve:BANDwidth command set the bandwidth for Remove s4p function. Use the :SPRocess:DDEConvolve:BANDwidth:BLIMit command to select the type of bandwidth filter used. This command supports the DEFault common child command.

Default User Folder

User-Data Folders

The default folder for storing S-Parameter files is in %USER_DATA_DIR%\S-Parameter Data as shown in this picture. It is good practice to include a path substitution string with the filename. For example, %USER_DATA_DIR%\S-Parameter Data\filename.

File names must include a path when using the child :FNAMe command. The :FNAMe command is not affected by a Default Setup or Factory Preset.

Specifying a path using a path substitution string in the filename ensures that the file will be saved in (or loaded from) the standard user-data folder. Failure to use a path substitution string may result either in a file created in an parent folder or a file error.
