Boonton 4500B RF Peak Power Analyzer
Remote Operation 5-55
OUTPut:MODUlation
Description: Set or return the output modulation state for the 1 GHz calibrator. If set to CW, a calibrated CW
signal will be generated. If set to PULSE, the output will be pulse modulated by the source
specified in the OUTPut:SOURce <INT, EXT> command. If EXT is selected, an external pulse
generator with TTL compatible output must be connected to the rear panel EXT PULSE BNC
connector. If no generator is connected, there will be no calibrator RF output. IF INT is selected,
the pulse modulation will be controlled by the Preset Group, OUTPut:PULSe:PPERIOD,
OUTPut:POLARrity and OUTPut:PULSe:PDCYCle or by OUTPut:PULSe:PERWID, depending
upon the OUTPut:PULse:CTRL <PRESET, VAR> setting.
Syntax: OUTPut:MODUlation <asc>
Argument: <asc> = {CW, PULSE}
Valid Modes: Any
OUTPut:POLArity
Description: Set or return the polarity of the duty cycle in the Preset pulse control mode of the internal 1 GHz
calibrator. When set to POS, the argument is the percentage of time the pulse is on in each period.
When set to NEG, the argument is the percentage of time the pulse is off in each period. This
parameter has no effect in the Variable pulse control mode or the External pulse source mode.
Syntax: OUTPut:POLArity <asc>
Argument: <asc> = {POS, NEG}
Valid Modes: Any
OUTPut:PULSe:CTRL
Description: Set or return the pulse control mode of the internal 1 GHz calibrator‘s pulse modulator. This
parameter has no effect in the External source pulse control mode.
Syntax: OUTPut:PULSe:CTRL <asc>
Argument: <asc> = {PRESET, VAR}
Valid Modes: Any
OUTPut:PULSe:DCYCle
Description: Set or return the duty cycle in percent in the Preset pulse control mode of the internal 1 GHz
calibrator. This parameter has no effect in the Variable pulse control mode or the External pulse
source mode.
Syntax: OUTPut:PULSe:DCYCle <asc>
Argument: <asc> = {10, 20, 30, 40, 50}
Valid Modes: Any
