8.3.7 Gate Holdoff
Lets you increase or decrease the wait time after a gate event ends before the
instrument will respond to the next gate signal.
After any Gate event finishes, the instrument must wait for the sweep system to
settle before it can respond to another Gate signal. The instrument calculates a
"wait time," taking into account a number of factors, including RBW and Phase
Noise Optimization settings. The goal is to achieve the same accuracy when gated
as in ungated operation. The figure below illustrates this concept:
When Gate Holdoff is Auto, the wait time calculated by the instrument is used.
When Gate Time is in Manual, the user may adjust the wait time, usually decreasing
it in order to achieve greater speed, but at the risk of decreasing accuracy.
