CALCulate Subsystem Commands

CALCulate[123456]:TPOWer:IRANge[STATe] OFFON01

CALCulate[123456]:TPOWer:IRANge[STATe]?

Turns the total power calculation range for all traces ON or OFF. Setting IRANge:STATe to ON will set the corresponding TPOWer:STATe to ON. Although there is a single range controlling the total power integration, the trace mean calculation, the marker search range, and the wavelength sweep range, there are four independent state settings for limiting the total power calculation, the trace mean, the marker search, and the wavelength sweep to the range. If all four states for the total power integration, the trace mean, the marker search, and the wavelength sweep range are OFF, setting the CALCu-

late:TPOWer:STATe to ON, will initialize the lower limit to start + span------------

and the

Sending the command when the instrument is in a zero span will generate a “Settings conflict” error.

CALCulate[123456]:TPOWer:IRANge:UPPer <numeric_value>[MUMNMAHZKHZMHZGHZTHZ]

CALCulate[123456]:TPOWer:IRANge:UPPer?

Sets the upper X-axis limit of the total power integration range for all traces. Setting this value when the CALCulate:TPOWer:IRANge[:STATe] is OFF will automatically turn the CALCulate:TPOWer:IRANge[:STATe] ON. The range used for the total power calculation is the same range used for the marker search range, the trace mean range and the wavelength range. Changing the range with this command will change all four ranges.

Default units for the parameter are meters. Sending the command when the instrument is in a zero span will generate a “Settings conflict” error.

CALCulate[123456]:TPOWer:STATe OFFON01

CALCulate[123456]:TPOWer:STATe?

Turns the total power calculation for a trace ON or OFF. Only one total power calculation can be turned on at a time. For example, if a total power calculation is being performed on trace A, turning a total power calculation for trace B ON will turn the calculation for trace A OFF. Turning this function ON in zero span generates a “Settings conflict” error.
