SCPI COMMAND SUMMARY

the sweep mode then the output level is controlled by the start, stop, center and span functions. If in the fixed power mode then the output is controlled by the POW C: LEVEL1 command. The *RST value is FIXed.

•POWer:OFFSet <num>[DB]lMAXimumlMINimumlUPlDOWN

•POWer:OFFSet? [MAXimumlMINimum]

Sets and queries the power offset. This function changes mapping of absolute power parameters on input to and output from the synthesizer. Changing this does not affect the output power of the synthesizer. Only the displayed parameters and query responses are changed. The equation implied by this is:

The entered or displayed power = Hardware Power + Offset After *RST, the value is 0.

•POWer:OFFSet:STATe ONlOFFlllO

•POWer:OFFSet:STATe?

Queries and turns the power offset off and on. After *RST, the setting is OFF.

•POWer:RANGe <num>[lvl suffix] lMAXimumlMINimumlUPlDOWN

•POWer:RANGe?

Sets and queries the setting of the power meter range. This is used

when the command POWer:ALC:SOURce issettoPMETer.

•POWer:SEARch ONlOFFlllOlONCE

•POWer:SEARch?

Sets and queries the power search switch. This has an interaction

with POWer:ALC:STATe as described below.

POWer:ALC:STATe	POWer:SEARch	Power Switch Action
ON	ON	ALC is momentarily closed to
		level at the requested power,
		and then the modulator is set to
		the same voltage in open loop
		mode. This repeats automatically
		any time that the power level or
		frequency is changed.
ON	OFF	Normal mode.
ON	ONCE	Immediately performs a power
		search. This leaves POWer:SEARch
		in the ON position.
OFF	not applicable	Modulator setting is
		explicitly set by user.

•POWer:SLOPe <num>[DB/freq suffix]lMAXimumlMINimumlUPlDOWN

•POWer:SLOPe? [MAXimumlMINimuml

Sets and queries the RF slope setting (dB per Hz).
