150 Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Fifth Edition
command:
:INPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OFFSet:POWermeter
syntax: :INPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OFFSet:POWermeter<wsp><slot>,<channel>
description: Sets the offset factor (α
Offset
) to the difference between a power value measured by another
powermeter (hosted by the same mainframe) (P
ext
) and the power value measured by the
attenuator module’s monitor diode (P
att
).
α
Offset
(dB) = P
att
(dBm) - P
ext
(dBm)
parameters: <slot>
<channel>
Slot number of the external powermeter.
Channel number of the external powermeter.
response: none
example: INP1:OFFS:POW 4,2
affects: Attenuator modules with power control.
command:
:INPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:ATTenuation:SPEed
syntax: :INPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:ATTenuation:SPEed<wsp><value> | MIN | MAX | DEF
description: Sets the filter transition speed; the speed at which the module moves from one attenuation to
another (in dBs).
parameters: <value>
MIN | MAX | DEF
The filter transition speed in dB/s.
Sets the filter transition speed to the module limits, or the module de-
fault.
response: none
example: INP1:ATT:SPE 2
affects: All attenuator modules.
command:
:INPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:ATTenuation:SPEed?
syntax: :INPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:ATTenuation:SPEed?<wsp> MIN | MAX | DEF
description: Without the optional parameter, queries the transition speed of the filter.
parameters: MIN | MAX | DEF Queries the transition speed limits, or the module default.
response: 4 byte Intel floating point; transition speed in dB/s.
example: INP1:ATT:SPE? → 2<END>
affects: All attenuator modules.
