Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BBIN:DIGital:ASETting:STATe on page 718
Measurement Period
Sets the recording duration for measuring the baseband input signal by
"Auto Level Set". For accurate level measurements, the measurement period should
be set to a time value that is long enough to capture several periods of the input signal.
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BBIN:MPERiod on page 719
Auto Level Set
Starts measuring the input signal. The measurement estimates the crest factor, the
peak power and the rms power. The estimated values are automatically entered into
the input fields "Crest Factor", "Peak Level" and "Level". Using these estimated values
the internal gain control adjusts the input signal gain to achieve an optimal dynamic
range.
See also "Fulfilling the prerequisites for a correct signal processing of the externally
supplied baseband signal" on page 452.
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BBIN:ALEVel:EXECute on page 717
Crest Factor
Sets the crest factor of the external analog or digital baseband signal. Indicates the
crest factor acquired with "Auto Level Set".
See also "Fulfilling the prerequisites for a correct signal processing of the externally
supplied baseband signal" on page 452.
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BBIN:CFACtor on page 717
Peak Level
Enters the peak level of the external analog or digital baseband signal relative to full
scale of 0.5 V (in terms of dB full scale).
Indicates the peak level acquired with "Auto Level Set".
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BBIN:POWer:PEAK on page 720
Level
Indicates the estimated rms level acquired with "Auto Level Set".
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:BBIN:POWer:RMS? on page 720
Signal Monitoring
The section "Signal Monitoring" indicates the overload of the A/D - Converter.
