GDRVSWDE
Delay Sweep for Time Window
GDRVSWDE Delay Sweep for Time Window
Allows you to specify the delay from the edge of the gate trigger until the sweep is started in
the time window.
Syntax
Item Description/Default R=t3e
Number Any real or integer number. Default unit is second. 1 ps to 65 ms.
Equivalent Softkey: SWEEP DELAY .
Option Required: Option 105. Option 101 is recommended.
Initial Value: 1 ps.
Related Commands: GDRVUTIL, GD.
Example
OUTPUT 718 ; “MOV GDRVSWDE, 1US ; ” Sets the time delay to 1 ps.
Description
When using GDRVSWDE, the gate zone markers shown in the time window are updated to the
value of GDRVSWDE.
Once you enter a value into GDRVSWDE, that value is retained until you change it, or execute
DISPOSE ALL. Pressing (PRESET] or turning the spectrum analyzer off does not change the
value of GDRVSWDE.
You can execute the GDRVSWDE command two different ways. You can either execute the
GDRVSWDE command directly (for example, “GDRVSWDE 1MS ; I’) or use the MOV command
to move the value for the time delay into the GDRVSWDE command (for example, “MOV
GDRVSWDE, 1MS ; ‘I). If you use the MOV command, no text is displayed in the active function
area during command execution.
The GDRVSWDE command is a gate utility function (see “GDRVUTIL” for more information
about the gate utility functions). Executing a gate utility command without Option 105
installed in the spectrum analyzer generates the COMMAND ERROR: message and an SRQ 140.
