CALCulate:DATA:TRACe <TraceName>, <Format>, <Data>...
The query gets the trace data of an arbitrary (not necessarily the active) trace, refer-
enced by its trace name <TraceName>.
The "set direction" allows to import formatted or unformatted trace data to an existing
trace.
Note
●
Unformatted trace data (SDATa) can only be imported to memory traces
●
Formatted trace data (FDATa) can only be imported to "live" traces if the related
channel is in single sweep mode (
INITiate<Ch>:CONTinuous OFF
).
Before the import, the target trace must be prepared according to the settings used
during export. Any request for new data from the hardware ("Restart Sweep" in sin-
gle sweep mode or switching to continuous sweep mode) discards imported data
and switches back the display to measured data.
Parameters:
<TraceName> String parameter containing the trace name
<Format> FDATa | SDATa | MDATa | NCData | UCData
Data format; see
Table 10-5 .
<Data> Trace data for
FDATa | SDATa
import either in ASCII or block
data format, depending on the current
FORMat[:DATA]
setting.
The column order must match the one used during export.
Example: See
CALCulate<Chn>:DATA
.
CALCulate<Ch>:DATA:CALL <Format>, <Data>...
The query reads the current response values of all S-parameter data traces at channel
<Ch>
's data access point
<DACPoint>
.
If a TOSM system error correction is active in the referenced channel, the command
reads the full nxn S-matrix of the calibrated ports (there is no need to create or display
the S-parameter traces). Use
CALCulate<Ch>:DATA:CALL:CATalog?
to query the
available traces.
Note
●
Importing data is only supported in single sweep mode (
INITiate<Ch>:
CONTinuous OFF
)
●
Before importing data, the channel must match to the settings used during export;
especially the user calibration and the configuration of balanced ports, stimulus
axis, switch matrix configuration, etc. must match
●
After importing data, "downstream" parameters in the data flow can be changed
and their effect is shown directly
●
Any request for new data from the hardware ("Restart Sweep" in single sweep
mode or switching to continuous sweep mode) discards imported data and
switches back the display to measured data
