6.1 RF Source
Dependencies This setting is for the independent mode, and has no effect on "List Sequencer" on page 2236. If
Sequencer is ON, this will make the source enter List Sequencer mode, and even if ARB state is ON,
the ARB file will not be played. When Sequencer is OFF, source leaves List Sequencer and this setting
takes effect immediately
The ARB can only be turned on when there is a waveform file selected for playback. On the GUI, If no
waveform is selected, this key is grayed out. If you send the SCPI command to turn the ARB on with no
waveform selected for playback, the ARB state remains OFF and an error is generated
-If you try to recall a certain set of states in which the selected waveform is not in ARB memory and
the ARB state is ON, errors are reported

Sample Rate
Lets you set the ARB waveform playback sample rate.
See "More Information" on page 2285
Remote Command
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:SCLock:RATE <freq>
:SOURce:RADio:ARB:SCLock:RATE?
Example
:SOUR:RAD:ARB:SCL:RATE 48.00 MHz
Notes If there is a sample rate specified in the header of the waveform file, changing that sample rate is not
recommended, as it may cause problems with burst timing
For E7760B, the Sample Rate is fixed. If this control is attempted to be set the error -221, “Settings
conflict; Sample Rate is fixed” is generated
Dependencies When a new waveform is selected for playback the settings contained within the associated waveform
header file are applied to the ARB. The sample rate is one of the values stored within the header file. If
the newly selected waveform file has an associated header file, the sample rate is updated with the
value from the header file. The sample rate will remain unchanged if the newly selected waveform
does not have an associated header file
