Command Reference
BTWV - Burst Wave Command
DESCRIPTION
Sets waveform type to burst or retrieves Burst Wave settings.
SYNTAX
{C1|C2}
{a value from the table below}
IMPORTANT: Set STATE ON before setting other parameters. Specify carrier wave type before listing
other CARR parameters (e.g., C1:BTWV STATE,ON,CARR,WVTP,
to repeat CARR; it is shown here to indicate which parameters can follow it.
Parameters
Value
Description
STATE
{ON|OFF}
To set or read other Burst Wave parameters, first set STATE ON.
PRD
Where
1000S}. Parameter is invalid when CARR,WVTP is NOISE or GATE_NCYC
is GATE. Parameter is valid only when TRSR is INT.
STPS
Where
NOISE or PULSE.
GATE_NCYC
{GATE|NCYC}
Configures burst waveform either gated or N-cycled. Parameter is invalid
when CARR,WVTP is NOISE.
TRSR
{EXT, INT, MAN}
Sets trigger source EXTernal, INTernal, or MANual. Parameter is valid only
when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.
DLAY
Where
period}. Parameter is valid only when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.
PLRT
{NEG|POS}
Sets polarity NEGative or POSitive. Parameter is valid only when
GATE_NCYC is GATE.
TRMD
Where
TRSR is EXT. Parameter is valid only when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.
EDGE
{RISE|FALL}
Use rising or falling edge. Parameter is invalid when CARR,WVTP is NOISE.
Parameter is valid only when GATE_NCYC is NCYC.
TIME
Where
GATE_NCYC is NCYC.
MTRIG
Triggers the device once. Parameter is valid only when TRSR is MAN.
CARR,WVTP
Where carrier
ARB}. CARR,WVTP cannot be NOISE if GATE_NCYC is NCYC.
(CARR,)FRQ
Where carrier wave
maximum depends on the WaveStation model}.
