Configure Sweep Coupling

IVI Compliance Package

IviSpecAn Configure Sweep Coupling

IviSpecAnBase Capability Group

This VI configures the coupling and sweeping properties of the spectrum analyzer.

instrument handle The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviSpecAn Initialize or IviSpecAn Initialize With Options VIs.
resolution bandwidth auto Enables resolution bandwidth auto coupling. The driver uses this value to set the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Resolution Bandwidth_AUTO property.

Valid Values:

TRUE - Resolution bandwidth is automatically selected.
FALSE - Resolution bandwidth is manually selected.

Default Value: FALSE
resolution bandwidth Specifies the measurement resolution bandwidth. The driver uses this value to set the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Resolution Bandwidth property.

Units: Hertz

Default Value: 1.0 HHz

Note:

This value is ignored when the Resolution Bandwidth Auto parameter or the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Resolution Bandwidth Auto is set to TRUE.
video bandwidth auto Enables video bandwidth auto coupling. The driver uses this value to set the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Video Bandwidth_AUTO property.

Valid Values:

TRUE - Video bandwidth is automatically selected
FALSE - Video bandwidth is manually selected

Default Value: FALSE
video bandwidth Specifies the video bandwidth of the post-detection filter. The driver uses this value to set the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Video Bandwidth property.

Units: Hertz

Default Value: 1.0 MHz

Note:

This value is ignored when the Video Bandwidth Auto parameter or the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Video Bandwidth_AUTO is set to TRUE.
sweep time auto Enables sweep time auto. The driver uses this value to set the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Sweep Time_AUTO property.

Valid Values:
TRUE - Sweep time is automatically selected
FALSE - Sweep time is manually selected

Default Value: FALSE
sweep time The length of time to complete one sweep. The driver uses this value to set the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Sweep Time property.

Units: seconds

Default Value: 1.0

Note:

This value is ignored when the Sweep Time Auto parameter or the IviSpecAn>>Basic Operation>>Sweep Time_AUTO is set to TRUE.
error in (no error) The error in cluster can accept error information wired from VIs previously called. Use this information to decide if any functionality should be bypassed in the event of errors from other VIs.

The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.

instrument handle out The instrument handle that you obtain from the IviSpecAn Initialize or IviSpecAn Initialize With Options VIs.
error out The error out cluster passes error or warning information out of a VI to be used by other VIs.

The pop-up option Explain Error (or Explain Warning) gives more information about the error displayed.
