Output RF Spectrum (ORFS) Due To Modulation Absolute Limits Commands

Use the commands in this section to change the output RF spectrum absolute limits to your own custom limits values.
ORFS limits are generally specified in dB relative to the reference power. This equates to the absolute power which the result must not exceed. Standards documents also supply an absolute power level— which the calculated relative limit (ref power – relative limit) must not lie below—for each ORFS type, radio standard, device type and offset frequency.
Therefore the relative limit applies if the calculated limit (ref power – relative limit) is greater than the absolute limit. Otherwise the absolute limit applies.
Example:
If relative limit = –75 dB and absolute limit = –65 dBm.
1. If the ref power is measured at 43 dBm, then: Upper result limit due to relative limit = 43 – 75 = –32 dBm
Upper result limit due to absolute limit = –65 dBm A relative limit of –32 dBm therefore applies.
2. If the ref power is measured at 0 dBm, then: Upper result limit due to relative limit = 0 – 75 = –75 dBm
Upper result limit due to absolute limit = –65 dBm An absolute limit of –65 dBm therefore applies.
The commands are presented according to the following devices: MS, BTS, UBTS1, UBTS2 and UBTS3.

Output RF Spectrum (ORFS) Due To Modulation Relative Limits Commands

Use the commands in this section to change the output RF spectrum relative limits to your own custom limits values.
ORFS limits are generally specified in dB relative to the reference power. This equates to the absolute power which the result must not exceed. Standards documents also supply an absolute power level— which the calculated relative limit (ref power – relative limit) must not lie below—for each ORFS type, radio standard, device type and offset frequency.
Therefore the relative limit applies if the calculated limit (ref power – relative limit) is greater than the absolute limit. Otherwise the absolute limit applies.
Example:
If relative limit = –75 dB and absolute limit = –65 dBm.
1. If the ref power is measured at 43 dBm, then: Upper result limit due to relative limit = 43 – 75 = –32 dBm
Upper result limit due to absolute limit = –65 dBm A relative limit of –32 dBm therefore applies.
2. If the ref power is measured at 0 dBm, then: Upper result limit due to relative limit = 0 – 75 = –75 dBm
Upper result limit due to absolute limit = –65 dBm An absolute limit of –65 dBm therefore applies.
The commands are presented according to standards DCS, GSM and PCS for devices MS, BTS and UBTS.

Set or query any of the absolute DCS relative MS related limits for the ORFS due to modulation measurement. Replace <Pnn> in the above command strings with the appropriate Pnn entry.
NOTE The relative limit applied depends on the measured total carrier power.
If the measured reference power lies between these discrete power values noted in the specific table the limit value is linearly interpolated.
Example:
The following command sets the relative result limit to –65.0 dB (the default value is –46.0 dB) when testing a DCS MS device at 400 kHz offset and total carrier power = 39 dBm:
:CALCulate:ORFSpectrum:MODulation:LIMit:DCS:MS :P39:UPPer:DATA4 –65.0

Output RF Spectrum (ORFS) Due To Switching Transients Absolute Limits Commands—BTS and UBTS

Use the commands in this section to change the output RF spectrum absolute limits to your own custom limits values.
ORFS limits are generally specified in dB relative to the reference power. This equates to the absolute power which the result must not exceed. Standards documents also supply an absolute power level— which the calculated relative limit (ref power – relative limit) must not lie below—for each ORFS type, radio standard, device type and offset frequency.
Therefore the relative limit applies if the calculated limit (ref power – relative limit) is greater than the absolute limit. Otherwise the absolute limit applies.
Example:
If relative limit = –75 dB and absolute limit = –65 dBm.
1. If the ref power is measured at 43 dBm, then: Upper result limit due to relative limit = 43 – 75 = –32 dBm
Upper result limit due to absolute limit = –65 dBm A relative limit of –32 dBm therefore applies.
2. If the ref power is measured at 0 dBm, then: Upper result limit due to relative limit = 0 – 75 = –75 dBm
Upper result limit due to absolute limit = –65 dBm An absolute limit of –65 dBm therefore applies.
Note that for ORFS the above only applies to BTS and uBTS devices as MS limits are specified in absolute terms (dBm) only.
The commands are presented according to devices BTS, UBTS1, UBTS2 and UBTS3.

Output RF Spectrum (ORFS) Due To Switching Transients Commands—MS

Use the commands in this section to change the output RF spectrum limits for MS devices, to your own custom limits values. The output RF spectrum test for MS devices, uses limits that are specified in absolute units—that is, dBm.
Note that the limit applied—as shown in the table that accompanies each command—depends on the total carrier power. If the measured carrier power lies between these discrete power values, the limit value is linearly interpolated. If it lies above or below the range specified, the upper or lower limit set are used respectively.

:CALCulate:ORFSpectrum:SWITching:LIMit:GSM:MS:<Pnn>:[:UPPer ]:DATA[n]
:CALCulate:ORFSpectrum:SWITching:LIMit:GSM:MS:<Pnn>:[:UPPer ]:DATA[n]?
Set or query any of the GSM MS related limits for the ORFS due to switching transients measurement. Replace <Pnn> in the above command strings with the appropriate Pnn entry. The measured total carrier power will determine which row of limits will be applied.
Table 2-27 shows how each <Pnn> is associated with a value that must
be indexed using a numeric from 1 to 5. Replace n in the above command strings with the appropriate numeric to set or query the desired relative limit for the required offset frequency. You can also change the values in the Power column (n=1) to alter the carrier power required for each set of limits.
Example 1:
The following command sets the result limit to –30.0 dBm (the default value is –21.0 dBm) when testing a GSM MS device, total carrier power 39 dBm, at 400 kHz offset:
:CALCulate:ORFSpectrum:SWITching:LIMit:GSM:MS:P39:UPPER :DATA2 –30.0
Example 2:
The following command configures the limits to use the P39 limits when the total carrier power level is 37dBm (instead of the default

INITiate Subsystem
The INITiate subsystem is used to control the initiation of the trigger. Refer to the TRIGger and ABORt subsystems for related commands.

Continuous or Single Measurements

:INITiate:CONTinuous OFF|ON|0|1 :INITiate:CONTinuous?
Selects whether the trigger system is continuously initiated or not. This corresponds to continuous measurement or single measurement operation.
When set to ON, at the completion of each trigger cycle, the trigger system immediately initiates another trigger cycle.
When set to OFF, the trigger system remains in an “idle” state until CONTinuous is set to ON or an INITiate[:IMMediate] command is received. On receiving the INITiate{:IMMediate] command, it will go through a single trigger cycle, and then return to the “idle” state.

Pause the Measurement

:INITiate:PAUSe
Pauses the current measurement by changing the current measurement state from the “wait for trigger” state to the “paused” state. If the measurement is not in the “wait for trigger” state, when the command is issued, the transition will be made the next time that state is entered as part of the trigger cycle. When in the pause state, the spectrum analyzer auto-align process stops. If the analyzer is paused for long a period of time, measurement accuracy may degrade.

INSTrument Subsystem
This subsystem includes commands for querying and selecting instrument measurement (personality option) modes.

Select Application by Number

:INSTrument:NSELect <integer> :INSTrument:NSELect?
Select the measurement application by its instrument number. The actual available choices depends upon which applications are installed in the instrument. These instrument numbers can be identified with INST:CATalog:FULL.
1=SA 3=GSM 4=cdmaOne
NOTE If you are using the status bits and the analyzer mode is changed, the
status bits should be read, and any errors resolved, prior to switching modes. Error conditions that exist prior to switching modes cannot be detected using the condition registers after the mode change. This is true unless they recur after the mode change, although transitions of these conditions can be detected using the event registers.
Changing modes resets all SCPI status registers and mask registers to their power-on defaults. Hence, any event or condition register masks must be re-established after a mode change. Also note that the power up status bit is set by any mode change, since that is the default state after power up.

MEASure Group of Commands
This group includes commands used to make measurements and return results. The different commands can be used to provide fine control of the overall measurement process. Most measurements should be done in single measurement mode, rather than doing the measurement continuously.
Each measurement sets the instrument state that is appropriate for that measurement. Other commands are available for each allow changing settings, view, limits, et cetera. Refer to:

Measure Commands

:MEASure:<measurement>[n]?
This is a fast single-command way to make a measurement using the factory default instrument settings. These are the settings and units that conform to the Standard.
• Stops the current measurement and sets up the instrument for the
specified measurement using the factory defaults
• Initiates the data acquisition for the measurement
• Blocks other SCPI communication, waiting until the measurement is
complete before returning results.
• After the data is valid it returns the scalar results, or the trace data,
for the specified measurement. If the optional [n] value is not included, or is set to 1, the scalar
measurement results will be returned. If the [n] value is set to a value other than 1, the selected trace data results will be returned. See each command for details of what types of scalar results or trace data results are available.
If you need to change some of the measurement parameters from the factory default settings you can set up the measurement with the CONFigure command. Use the commands in the SENSe:<measurement> and CALCulate:<measurement> subsystems to change the settings. Then you can use the READ? command, or the INITiate and FETCh? commands, to initiate the measurement and query the results. See Figure 2-1.
Chapter 2 2-51
Language Reference
MEASure Group of Commands
If you need to repeatedly make a given measurement with settings other than the factory defaults, you can use the commands in the SENSe:<measurement> and CALCulate:<measurement> subsystems to set up the measurement. Then use the READ? command or INITiate and FETCh? commands, to initiate the measurement and query results.
Measurement settings persist if you initiate a different measurement and then return to a previous one. Use READ:<measurement>? if you want to use those persistent settings. If you want to go back to the default settings, use MEASure:<measurement>?.

Configure Commands
:CONFigure:<measurement>
This command sets up the instrument for the specified measurement using the factory default instrument settings and stops the current measurement. It does not initiate the taking of measurement data.
The CONFigure? query returns the current measurement name.

Fetch Commands

:FETCh:<measurement>[n]?
This command puts valid data into the output buffer, but does not initiate data acquisition. Use the INITiate[:IMMediate] command to acquire data before you use the FETCh command. You can only fetch results from the measurement that is currently selected.

If the optional [n] value is not included, or is set to 1, the scalar measurement results will be returned. If the [n] value is set to a value other than 1, the selected trace data results will be returned. See each command for details of what types of scalar results or trace data results are available. The binary data formats should be used for handling large blocks of data since they are smaller and faster then the ASCII format.

Read Commands

:READ:<measurement>[n]?
• Does not preset the measurement to the factory defaults. (The
MEASure? command does preset.) It uses the settings from the last measurement.
• Initiates the measurement and puts valid data into the output
buffer. If a measurement other than the current one is specified, the instrument will switch to that measurement before it initiates the measurement and returns results.
• Blocks other SCPI communication, waiting until the measurement is
complete before returning the results If the optional [n] value is not included, or is set to 1, the scalar
measurement results will be returned. If the [n] value is set to a value other than 1, the selected trace data results will be returned.

If mass storage is not specified in the filename, the default mass storage specified in the MSIS command will be used.
The forward slash / and the reverse slash \ are both acceptable delimiters for specifying a directory path.

Store a Measurement Results in a File

:MMEMory:STORe:RESults filename.csv
Saves the measurement results to a file in memory. The file name must have a file extension of .csv and will be in the CSV (comma-separated values) format.
Example: MMEM:STOR:RES ‘C:mymeas.csv’ Front Panel
Access: File, Save, Type, More, Measurement Results
