DISPlay Subsystem

The DISPlay controls the selection and presentation of textual, graphical, and TRACe information. Within a DISPlay, information may be separated into individual WINDows.

Adjacent Channel Power - View Selection

:DISPlay:ACP:VIEW BGRaphSPECtrum

:DISPlay:ACP:VIEW?

Select the adjacent channel power measurement display of bar graph or spectrum.

You may want to disable the spectrum trace data part of the measurement so you can increase the speed of the rest of the measurement display. Use SENSe:ACP:SPECtrum:ENABle to turn on or off the spectrum trace. (Basic and cdmaOne modes only)

Factory Preset
and *RST:	Bar Graph (BGRaph)
Remarks:	You must be in the Basic, cdmaOne, cdma2000,
	W-CDMA (3GPP), W-CDMA (Trial & ARIB), NADC or
	PDC mode to use this command. Use
	INSTrument:SELect to set the mode.

Date and Time Display

:DISPlay:ANNotation:CLOCk:DATE:FORMat MDYDMY

:DISPlay:ANNotation:CLOCk:DATE:FORMat?

Allows you to set the format for displaying the real-time clock. To set the date time use :SYSTem:DATE <year>,<month>,<day>.

Factory Preset
and *RST:	MDY
Remarks:	This parameter is persistent, which means that it
	retains the setting previously selected, even through a
	power cycle.
