SENSe:FREQuency:BURSt:GATE:DELay
Syntax
[SENSe:]FREQuency:BURSt:GATE:DELay {<time> | MINimum | MAXimum | DEFault}
[SENSe:]FREQuency:BURSt:GATE:DELay? [{MINimum | MAXimum | DEFault}]
Description
This command selects the gate open delay time for measuring the carrier frequency of a burst (pulse fre-
quency) when SENSe:FREQuency:BURSt:GATE:AUTO is set to OFF (manual gate control).
When manual control, the gate window must be fully within the pulse envelope; oth-
erwise, the measurement results will be unpredictable.
Parameters
Name Type Range of Values Default Value
<time> Numeric 0.0 to 10 sec with
10 nsec resolution
MIN = 0.0
MAX=10 sec
0.0
Remarks
l Available only on the Keysight 53230A. Requires option 150.
l The instrument sets the gate open delay time to 0.0 (no delay) after a Factory Reset (*RST command) or
an Instrument Preset (SYSTem:PRESet command).
Return Format
The query returns the gate open delay time in the form +1.00000000000000E-007.
Examples
The following example measures the carrier frequency of a burst. The measurement starts 1 uS after the
burst starts with a gate time of 3 uS:
CONF:FREQ:BURS
FREQ:BURS:GATE:AUTO OFF
FREQ:BURS:GATE:DEL 1E-6
