Lets you quickly control the power of the modulator prior to up-conversion to the RF
carrier.

Example
:SOUR:RAD:ARB:BAS:POW -10 dB
Notes The Source Power level equals RF Power plus Baseband Power. For example, if the RF Power is set to
-10 dBm and the Baseband Power is set to -4dB, the actual Source Power level is -14dBm
Can be used to change the output level very quickly compared to the RF Power

Mkr 1-4 Polarity
Lets you set the polarity of markers 1 through 4 respectively.
Remote Command

Dependencies When a new waveform is selected for playback the settings contained within the associated waveform
header file are applied to the ARB. The marker polarity is one of the values stored within the header
file. If the newly selected waveform file has an associated header file, the marker polarity is updated
with the value from the header file. The marker polarity will remain unchanged if the newly selected
waveform does not have an associated header file

Pulse/RF Blank
Lets you select which marker is used for Pulse/RF Blank . This function blanks the
RF when the marker signal goes low. The marker polarity determines when the
