Agilent X-Series Signal Generators SCPI Command Reference 285
Arb Commands
Dual ARB Subsystem–N5172B/82B ([:SOURce]:RADio:ARB)
SLAVe Sets the signal generator as a slave in the setup. When selected, the following
trigger features are unavailable:
Prior to selecting SLAVe, ensure that the trigger type is something other than
shown above and that the trigger source is set according to the following list:
If not, the X- Series signal generator generates a settings conflict error and
changes the trigger type to TRIGger (continuous play once triggered) and the
trigger source to the above listed selections.
To set the slave position, see “:MBSync:SREFerence” on page 286.
For more information on the multiple BBG synchronization feature, see the User’s Guide.
Example
:RAD:ARB:MBS MAST
The preceding example sets the signal generator as the master in the master/slave setup.
*RST OFF
:MBSync:NASLaves
Supported N5172B/82B
[:SOURce]:RADio:ARB:MBSync:NASLaves <value>
[:SOURce]:RADio:ARB:MBSync:NASLaves?
This command enters the number of first- generation MXG (N51xxA) signal generators that are
designated as slaves in a multiple BBG synchronization setup. This value is required for both the
master and slave signal generators and is used to calculate the internal compensation values to
minimize synchronization delay.
NOTE: All first- generation MXG slaves must be at the end of the synchronization chain.
The NASLaves value is a persistent setting that survives both preset and power cycling.
Example
:RAD:ARB:MBS:NASL 3
The preceding example enters three as the number of first- generation MXG slaves the current signal
generator master/slave setup.
Range 0 to 15 (depends on the NSLaves setting)
