Query Response

The SUM command gives the sum of the trace amplitudes in measurement units. SUM must be used as either a query or as a source in another analyzer-command function. Form a query by ending the SUM statement with a question mark (?). When used as a query, SUM queries the sum of the trace amplitudes to the computer. Use SUM as a source by incorporating the SUM statement into the source of any spectrum-analyzer command having prede￿ned function in its syntax diagram. When SUM is used as a source, the sum of the trace amplitudes is used for operation by the command that contains SUM. When the source is TRA, TRB, TRC, or trace range, ensure the data re￿ects one complete sweep using the SNGLS and TS commands.
