Gating Progress, Input Selection | Agilent Technologies N5980A

Programming Reference

Gating Progress

:SENS1:GATE:STAT

Syntax :SENS1:GATE:STAT?

Description Requests the current state of the gating interval. It will return 1 while the gating is in progress and 0 if the gating is finished/ inactive. It is guaranteed that the very first :SENS1:GATE:STAT? query after the start of the gating period will report a valid state of the gating progress. There is no need to capture 0-1-0 transitions of the gating progress.

Input Selection

SENS1:INP
Syntax SENS1:INP	SFPSMA

Description Selects the input for the error detector.
