Sweep/Control

The 10 MHz path is always used for Swept sweeps. It is always used for FFT sweeps as well,
unless the user specifies ~25 MHz in which case the 25 MHz path will be used for FFT sweeps, or
~40 MHz, in which case the 40 MHz path will be used for FFT sweeps. Note that, although each of
these keys picks the specified path, the analyzer may choose an FFT width less than the full IF
width, in order to optimize speed, trading off acquisition time versus processing time.

Gate

Accesses a menu that enables you to control the gating function.  The Gate functionality is used
to view signals best viewed by qualifying them with other events.

Gate setup parameters are the same for all measurements – they do not change as you change
measurements.   Settings like these are called “Meas Global” and are unaffected by Meas Preset.   

Note that Sweep Time autocoupling rules and annotation are changed by Gate being on.

Readback

The state and method of Gate, as [Off, LO] or [On, Video]. Note that for measurements that only
support gated LO, the method is nonetheless read back, but always as LO.
