CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SDEFine:SENDed <TraceName>, <Result>
Creates a trace and assigns a channel number, a name and a measurement parame-
ter to it. The trace becomes the active trace in the channel but is not displayed.
Similar to CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SDEFine, but in presence of balanced ports
this command distinguishes between
●
single-ended S-parameters for logical ports (SSS<Li><Lj>)
●
"raw" single-ended S-parameters referring to physical ports (S<Pi><Pj>)
Suffix:
<Ch>
.
Channel number
Setting parameters:
<TraceName> Trace name
<Result> Measured quantity
Usage: Setting only
Manual operation: See "S-Parameter (selector)" on page 395
CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SELect <TraceName>
Selects an existing trace as the active trace of the channel. All trace commands with-
out explicit reference to the trace name act on the active trace (e.g.
CALCulate<Chn>:FORMat). CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SELect is also neces-
sary if the active trace of a channel has been deleted.
Suffix:
<Ch>
.
Channel number.
Parameters:
<TraceName> Trace name, e.g. 'Trc4'. See "Rules for trace names" in "Table
Area" on page 349.
Example:
CALC4:PAR:SDEF 'Ch4Tr1', 'S11'
Create channel 4 and a trace named Ch4Tr1 to measure the
input reflection coefficient S
11
. The trace is the active trace in
channel 4.
CALC4:PAR:SDEF 'Ch4Tr2', 'S22'
Create another trace named Ch4Tr2 to measure the output
reflection coefficient S
22
. Again this new trace becomes the
active trace in channel 4.
CALC4:PAR:SEL 'Ch4Tr1'
Select the first trace Ch4Tr1 as the active trace.
CALC4:FORM MLIN
Calculate the magnitude of S
11
and display it in a linearly scaled
Cartesian diagram.
