Note that the command has no effect for data that you send to the R&S
FSV/A. The
R&S
FSV/A automatically recognizes the data it receives, regardless of the format.
Parameters:
<Format>
ASCii | REAL | UINT | MATLab
ASCii
ASCii format, separated by commas.
This format is almost always suitable, regardless of the actual
data format. However, the data is not as compact as other for-
mats may be.
REAL
Floating-point numbers (according to IEEE 754) in the "definite
length block format".
<BitLength>
16 | 32 | 64
Length in bits for floating-point results
32
32-bit floating-point numbers
For I/Q data, 8 bytes per sample are returned for this format set-
ting.
Example:
FORM REAL,32
TRACe<n>[:DATA]
This command queries current trace data and measurement results.
The data format depends on
Suffix:
<n>
.
Query parameters:
<ResultType>
Selects the type of result to be returned.
TRACE1 | ... | TRACE6
Returns the trace data for the corresponding trace.
SPECtrogram | SGRam
Returns the results of the spectrogram result display.
For details see
.
Return values:
<TraceData>
Returns the sweep point values as shown in the result display.
If you are measuring with the auto peak detector, the command
returns positive peak values only. (To retrieve negative peak val-
ues, define a second trace with a negative peak detector.)
For the Magnitude and Spectrum result displays in the I/Q Ana-
lyzer application, this command returns the magnitude of the I
and Q values (I+jQ) for each sweep point (=1001 values).
For the Real/Imag (I/Q) result display, the command returns first
the real parts for each trace point, then the imaginary parts
(I
1
,...,I
1001
, Q
1
,...,Q
1001
).
