VNA Commands :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:DISTance Subsystem
MS20xxC PM PN: 10580-00306 Rev. E 3-5
3-4 :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:DISTance Subsystem
The commands in this subsystem define the gate configuration for the distance domain.
Gate Center Distance
:CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:DISTance:CENTer
Description: Sets the gate center distance for the given trace. <Tr> is the trace
number in the range of 1 to 4. If no trace number is specified, then the
<Tr> parameter defaults to trace number 1. The query version of this
commands returns the current gate center in millimeters. Note that
setting this may also change the gate start, stop, and span for both time
and distance gates. If gate coupling is on, then setting the gate center
distance also sets the same gate center distance for all traces. Note that
setting this also sets the given trace as the active trace if it is not
already active.
Note that the command
:CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:TIME:CENTer functions the
same as this command. The only difference is that with this command,
you must send the center in distance units rather than time units.
Syntax: :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:DISTance:CENTer
<center distance>
:CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:DISTance:CENTer?
Cmd Parameter: <NRf> <center distance>
Query Response: <NR3> <center distance> (returned in millimeters)
Range: –3000.0 m to +3000 m
Default Value: 2055 mm
Default Unit: Meters (m) when setting. Millimeters (mm) for query. Note that if the
distance unit is in feet, then both setting and query are in feet.
Note
All Front Panel Access sequences that are referenced in this subsytem require that
the active trace domain is set to Distance.
