Positive values mean that the Q vector is amplified more than the I vector by the corre-
sponding percentage. Negative values have the opposite effect.

Remote command:
For analog impairments:
[:SOURce<hw>]:IQ:IMPairment:IQRatio[:
For digital impairments:
[:SOURce]:BB:IMPairment:IQOutput<ch>:IQRatio[:MAGNitude]
[:SOURce]:BB:IMPairment:RF<ch>:IQRatio[:MAGNitude]
Quadrature Offset
Sets the quadrature offset.

"To optimize sideband suppression"
Remote command:
For analog impairments:
[:SOURce<hw>]:IQ:IMPairment:QUADrature[:
For digital impairments:
[:SOURce]:BB:IMPairment:IQOutput<ch>:QUADrature[:ANGLe]
[:SOURce]:BB:IMPairment:RF<ch>:QUADrature[:ANGLe]
Skew
In the "I/Q Modulator or I/Q Analog > Digital Impairments" dialog, sets a delay between
the Q vector and the I vector of the corresponding stream.
Remote command:
[:SOURce]:BB:IMPairment:IQOutput<ch>:SKEW
[:SOURce]:BB:IMPairment:RF<ch>:SKEW
IQ Delay
In the "I/Q Modulator or I/Q Analog > Digital Impairments" dialog, sets the time delay of
both I and Q vectors relative to the selected trigger and marker.
A positive value means that the I and Q vectors delay relative to the marker/trigger and
the other way around.
