SELECT WAVEFORM...
WAVEFORM LENGTH
Displays the number of samples contained in the
waveform.
IEC/IEEE bus command
:ARB:WAV:POIN?
CLOCK FREQUENCY
Provides the sample rate which the waveform has
been generated for. This value is always entered as
CLOCK FREQUENCY parameter of the ARB MOD
menu with loading a waveform (independent of SET
SMIQ ACCORDING TO WAVEFORM).
IEC/IEEE bus command
:ARB:WAV:TAG? 'CLOCK'
IQ FILTER
Displays the setting used for calculation of the
waveform in WinIQSIM. WinIQSIM sets this value to
0 (OFF), if the waveform is calculated for the SMIQ
in particular. If, however, a compensation for an IQ
filter is taken into account (for example when
calculating the waveform for AMIQ), the
compensation is automatically counted back by the
SMIQ. Independently from this setting, however, a
suitable IQ filter can be selected in the SMIQ.
Compensation of the IQ filter is executed
automatically by the SMIQ.
The value of the waveform is used in the VECTOR
MOD menu for the IQ filter if this is enabled in the
SET SMIQ ACCORDING TO WAVEFORM menu.
IEC/IEEE bus command
:ARB:WAV:TAG?
'LACP FILTER'
IQ SWAP
Indicates the setting used with the waveform
calculation in WinIQSIM. The value is used in the
VECTOR MOD menu for the IQ SWAP setting after
enabling in the SET SMIQ ACCORDING TO
WAVEFORM menu.
IEC/IEEE bus command
:ARB:WAV:TAG? 'IQ SWAP'
BERT PRBS
Displays the type of PRBS used for the data in
WinIQSIM, if the data have been prepared for a
BER measurement.
The setting is used in the BERT menu for setting the
type of PRBS after clearing in the SET SMIQ
ACCORDING TO WAVEFORM menu. A waveform
cannot be used always for a BER measurement. If
not, the display reads NONE.
IEC/IEEE bus command
:ARB:WAV:TAG? 'PRBS LENGTH'
BERT DATA BITS
Indicates the number of data bits in a waveform, if
the data have been prepared for a BER measure-
ment by WinIQSIM. If the waveform cannot be used
for a BER measurement, zero is displayed, here.
IEC/IEEE bus command
:ARB:WAV:TAG? 'BERT DATABITS'
