Query parameters:
<TraceNumber> TRACE1 | TRACE2 | TRACE3 | TRACE4 | TRACE5 | TRACE6
Trace number
Example:
TRACe:DATA:X? TRACE1
Returns the x-values for trace 1.
Usage: Query only
TRACe:IQ Subsystem
The commands of this subsystem are used for acquisition and output of measured IQ
data.
Some further information on working with IQ data is provided here:
●
Chapter 3.5.6, "Working with I/Q Data", on page 468
●
"I/Q Gating" on page 904
Different remote modes available
In remote control, two different modes for the I/Q analyzer functions are available. A
quick mode for pure data acquisition, and a more sophisticated mode for acquisition
and evaluation. The sophisticated evaluation mode can be enabled by a special com-
mand (see TRACe<n>:IQ:EVAL on page 899). In the quick data acquisition mode,
which is activated by default with the TRACe<n>:IQ[:STATe] command, the new vis-
ualization functions are not available; however, performance is slightly improved.
The measurement results are output in the form of a list, three different formats can be
selected for this list (TRACe<n>:IQ:DATA:FORMat command).
The FORMat command can be used to select between binary output (32 bit IEEE 754
floating-point values) and output in ASCII format.
For details on formats refer to Formats for Returned Values: ASCII Format and Binary
Format.
Different procedures
The commands of this subsystem can be used in two ways:
●
Measurement and result query with one command:
This method causes the least delay between measurement and output of the result
data, but it requires the control computer to wait actively for the response data.
●
Setting up the instrument, start of the measurement via INIT and query of the result
list at the end of the measurement:
With this method, the control computer can be used for other activities during the
measurement. However, the additional time needed for synchronization via service
request must be taken into account.
