VNA Commands :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:TIME Subsystem
MS20xxC PM PN: 10580-00306 Rev. E 3-13
3-5 :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:TIME Subsystem
The commands in this subsystem define the gate configuration for the time domain.
Gate Center Time
:CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:TIME:CENTer
Description: Sets the gate center time 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
command returns the current gate center in nanoseconds. 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
time also sets the same gate center time 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]:DISTance:CENTer functions the
same as this command. The only difference is that with this command,
you must send the center in time units rather than distance units.
Syntax: :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:TIME:CENTer <center time>
:CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:TIME:CENTer?
Cmd Parameter: <NRf> <center time>
Query Response: <NR3> <center time> (time returned in nanoseconds)
Range: –100 ms to +100 ms
Default Value: 6ns
Default Unit: Seconds (s) when setting, nanoseconds (ns) for query.
Example: To set the gate center time for trace number 2 to 15 ns:
:CALC2:FILT:TIME:CENT 15ns
Related Command: :CALCulate<Tr>:FILTer[:GATE]:DISTance:CENTer
Front Panel
Access: Freq/Time/Dist, Gate, Center Gate
Note
All Front Panel Access sequences that are referenced in this subsytem require that
the active trace domain is set to Time.
