:ROUTe Subsystem (Option UN8)
:ROUTe Subsystem (Option UN8)
The route subsystem is used to set the parameters associated with signal polarity.
1
Burst Gate Input Polarity Configuration
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:IPOLarity:BGATe POSitive|NEGative
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:IPOLarity:BGATe?
This command configures the polarity of the TTL input signal at the BURST GATE IN
connector. POSitive refers to the rising edge, while NEGative refers to the falling edge.
*RST Value: Positive
Data Clock Input Polarity Configuration
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:IPOLarity:CLOCk POSitive|NEGative
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:IPOLarity:CLOCk?
This command configures the polarity of the TTL input signal at the DATA CLOCK
connector. POSitive refers to the rising edge, while NEGative refers to the falling edge.
*RST Value Positive
Data Clock Output Polarity Configuration
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:OPOLarity:CLOCk POSitive|NEGative
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:OPOLarity:CLOCk?
This command configures the polarity of the TTL output signal at the DATA CLOCK OUT
connector. POSitive refers to the rising edge, while NEGative refers to the falling edge.
*RST Value: Positive
Data, Data Clock, and Symbol Sync Outputs State
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:OUTPut:DCS[:STATe] ON|OFF|1|0
:ROUTe:HARDware:DGENerator:OUTPut:DCS[:STATe]?
This command is used to disconnect the output signals from the rear panel DATA OUT,
DATA CLK OUT, and SYMBOL SYNC OUT connectors. Normally, these output signals
should be connected (On). However, disconnecting these outputs will decrease the spurs
that are sometimes present when you are operating at high symbol rates.
*RST Value: On
1. Older versions of the :ROUTe subsystem SCPI commands will still work for backward compatibility
with Options UN8 and UN9 − hardware versions B and C, and Options UN3 and UN4 − hardware
version A.
