Sweep/Control
Gate View On/OffTurning on Gate View in the Swept SA measurement provides a single-window gate view display..Turning on Gate View in other measurements shows the split-screen Gate View. In these measurements, when the Gate View is on, the regular view of the current measurement traces and results are reduced vertically to about 70% of the regular height. The Zero Span window, showing the positions of the Gate, is shown between the Measurement Bar and the reduced measurement window. By reducing the height of the measurement window, some of the annotation on the Data Display may not fit and is not shown.
Backwards Compatibility Notes: In ESA, Trig Delay (On) and Gate (On) could not be active at the same time..
This dependency does not exist in PSA or in the X-Series.
Initial S/W Revision: Prior to A.02.00
Key Path: Sweep/Control, Gate
Remote Command: [:SENSe]:SWEep:EGATe:VIEW ON|OFF|1|0
[:SENSe]:SWEep:EGATe:VIEW?
Example: SWE:EGAT:VIEW ON turns on the gate view.
Dependencies: In the Swept SA measurement:
In Gate View, the regular Sweep Time key is grayed out . When pressed, the
grayed out key puts up the informational message "Use Gate View Sweep
Time in the Gate menu."
In the other measurements:
When you turn Gate View on, the lower window takes on the current state of
the instrument. Upon leaving Gate View, the instrument takes on the state of
the lower window.
When you turn Gate View on, the upper window Sweep Time is set to the gate
view sweep time.
Couplings: These couplings apply to the Swept SA measurement:
• When Gate View is turned on, the instrument is set to Zero Span.
• Gate View automatically turns off whenever a Span other than Zero is
selected.
• Gate View automatically turns off if you press the Last Span key while in
Gate View, and the instrument returns to the Span it was in before entering
Gate View (even if that is Zero Span).
• When Gate View is turned on, the sweep time used is the gate view sweep
time. This is set according to the rules in section “Gate View Setup ” on
page 1285
• When Gate View is turned of f, Sweep Time is set to the normal Swept SA
measurement sweep time.
• If Gate View is on and Gate is off, then turning on Gate turns off Gate
View.
