[SENSe:]SWEep:EGATe:TYPE
<Type>
This command selects the way gated measurements are triggered.
Parameters:
<Type>
LEVel
The trigger event for the gate to open is a particular power level.
After the gate signal has been detected, the gate remains open
until the signal disappears.
EDGE
The trigger event for the gate to open is the detection of the sig-
nal edge.
After the gate signal has been detected, the gate remains open
until the gate length is over.
*RST:
EDGE
Example:
SWE:EGAT:TYPE EDGE
Manual operation:
See
TRIGger<tp>[:SEQuence]:HOLDoff[:TIME]
<Offset>
Defines the time offset between the trigger event and the start of the measurement
(data capturing).
A negative offset is possible for time domain measurements.
For the trigger sources "External" or "IF Power", a common input signal is used for both
trigger and gate. Therefore, changes to the gate delay affect the trigger offset as well.
Suffix:
<tp>
.
irrelevant
Parameters:
<Offset>
For measurements in the frequency domain, the range is 0
s to
30
s.
For measurements in the time domain, the range is the negative
sweep time to 30
s.
*RST:
0 s
Default unit: s
Example:
//Define a trigger offset
TRIG:HOLD 500us
Manual operation:
See
TRIGger<tp>[:SEQuence]:LEVel[:EXTernal]
<Level>
This command defines the level the external signal must exceed to cause a trigger
event.
Note that the variable [Input/Output] connectors must be set for use as input using the
OUTPut<up>:TRIGger<tp>:DIRection
command.
