command:
:OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:STATe:APOWeron?
syntax: :OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:STATe:APOWeron?
description: Queries the state of the shutter at power on.
parameters: none
response: boolean 0 The shutter is open after mainframe power on.
1 The shutter is closed after mainframe power on.
example: OUTP1:APOW? → 0<END>
affects: All attenuator modules.
command:
:OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:ATIMe
syntax: :OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:ATIMe<wsp><value>[ NS | US | MS| S ]
description: Sets the powermeter averaging time, which can, if the attenuator’s power contol feature is
activated, affect how the attenuator compensates for changes to input power.
parameters: <value> The averaging time (in seconds if no unit specified).
response: none
example: OUTP1:ATIM 1s
affects: Attenuator modules with power control.
command:
:OUTPutn]:CHANnel[m]]:ATIMe?
syntax: :OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:ATIMe?
description: Queries the powermeter averaging time.
parameters: none
response: 4 byte Intel floating point; the averaging time in seconds
example: OUTP1:ATIM? → 1<END>
affects: Attenuator modules with power control.
command:
:OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:CORRection:COLLection:ZERO
syntax: :OUTPutn[:CHANnel[m]]:CORRection:COLLection:ZERO
description: Zeros the electrical offsets of the attenuator’s integrated powermeter.
parameters: none
response: none
example: OUTP1:CORR:COLL:ZERO
