Keysight M8070A Programming Guide 311
SCPI Command Reference 5
:PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:EBEnabled[?]
Syntax :PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:EBEnabled ‘identifier’, <OFF|ON|0|1>
:PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:EBEnabled? ‘identifier’
Input
Parameters
‘identifier’: Specify the measurement name.
<OFF|ON|0|1>: Disable/enable errored bits as criteria to move to the next
measurement point.
Return Range 0|1
Description This command enables/disables the number of errored bits. This
command also associates this parameter with a specific measurement
name identifier. If enabled (1 or ON), then errored bits will be used along
with the number of compared bits as the criteria for moving to the next
measurement point when the sample delay optimization is set to NONE. If
disabled (0 or OFF), then only the number of compared bits will be used as
the criteria for moving to the next measurement point while running the
measurement. The query returns the current value.
This SCPI is applicable for M8041A, M8051A, M8062A and M8046A.
Example :PLUG:OTIM:ACQ:EBE ‘MyMeasurement’, 1
:PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:ERRored[?]
Syntax :PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:ERRored ‘identifier’, <NRf>
:PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:ERRored? ‘identifier’
Input
Parameters
‘identifier’: Specify the measurement name.
<NRf>: Specify the number of errored bits.
Return Range 1E+0 to 1E+18
Description This command specifies the number of errored bits. This command also
associates this parameter with a specific measurement name identifier.
This command can only be used when the
:PLUGin:OTIMing:ACQuisition:EBEnabled command is set to 1 (enabled)
and the sample delay optimization is set to NONE. This is the criteria for
moving to the next measurement point while running the measurement.
The query returns the current value.
This SCPI is applicable for M8041A, M8051A, M8062A and M8046A.
Example :PLUG:OTIM:ACQ:ERR ‘MyMeasurement’, 1E+4
