Limit value, to be defined in accordance with the selected format
(CALCulate<Chn>:RIPPle:RDOMain:FORMat).
Almost no restriction for limit ranges; see Rules for Ripple Limit Definition.
[according to the format of the active trace]
– (no ripple limit line defined after *RST)
Device-specific, with query.
See CALCulate<Chn>:RIPPle:SEGMent<Seg>:STIMulus:STARt.
CALCulate<Chn>:RIPPle:SEGMent<Seg>:RESult?
Returns the result of the ripple limit check in the previously defined limit range no. <Seg>.
Use CALCulate<Chn>:RIPPle:FAIL? to query the result for global ripple limit check.
In remote control, the ripple limit check result is calculated once at the end of each sweep. If the ripple
limits are changed, a new sweep is required to obtain updated ripple limit check results. In single sweep
mode (INITiate<Ch>:CONTinuous OFF), the new sweep must be started explicitly using
INITiate<Ch>[:IMMediate]:SCOPe ALL | SINGle. This behavior is different from manual control
where a changed ripple limit line can directly affect the pass/fail result of the displayed trace.
Channel number used to identify the active trace.
Ripple limit range number
0 | 1 - 0 represents pass, 1 represents fail
Measured ripple in the limit range. A result is returned even if the limit check in
the range no. <Seg> is disabled; see example below.
– (a reset deletes all ripple limit ranges)
Device-specific, query only
*RST; :CALC:RIPP:DATA 1,1500000000, 2000000000,3
Define and enable a ripple limit range in the stimulus range between 1.5 GHz
and 2 GHz, assigning a ripple limit of +3 dB.
CALC:RIPP:STAT ON; SEGM:RES?
Enable the limit check and query the result for the created range. Possible
response: 0,0.3529814004.
CALC:RIPP:DATA 0,2500000000, 3000000000,3
Define a second ripple limit range with disabled limit check (no limit check
results are displayed in the diagram area).
CALC:RIPP:SEGM2:RES?
Query the result for the second range. Possible response: 0,1.149071925.
