:SOURce:BURSt Commands
[:SOURce[]]:BURSt:GATE:POLarity
Syntax [:SOURce[]]:BURSt:GATE:POLarity {NORMal|INVerted}
[:SOURce[]]:BURSt:GATE:POLarity?
Description Set the gate polarity of the gated burst of the specified channel to positive
(NORMal) or negative (INVerted).
Query the gate polarity of the gated burst of the specified channel.
Parameter Name Type Range Default
[] Discrete 1|2 1
{NORMal|INVerted} Discrete NORMal|INVerted NORMal
Explanation  When [:SOURce[]] or [] is omitted, the system sets the related
parameters of CH1 by default.
 The gate polarity is only applicable to the gated burst mode
( [:SOURce[]]:BURSt:MODE ). The signal generator controls the burst
output according to the level of the external signal (namely the gated signal)
inputted from the [Mod/Trig/FSK/Sync] connector of the corresponding
channel at the rear panel.
 Positive (NORMal): the gated signal is true (false) when the external signal
level is high (low); Negative (INVerted): the gated signal is true (false) when
the external signal level is low (high).
 The signal generator outputs a continuous waveform when the gated signal is
“True”; the signal generator finishes the current waveform period and then
stops when the gated signal is “False”. For noise waveform, the instrument
stops immediately when the gated signal changes to “False”.
Return Format The query returns NORM or INV.
Example :SOUR1:BURS:GATE:POL NORM /*Set the gate polarity of the gated burst of
CH1 to positivel*/
:SOUR1:BURS:GATE:POL? /*Query the gate polarity of the gated burst of
CH1 and the query returns NORM*/
