SCPI Command

SYSTem:COMMunicate:ECAL:DATA? <path>, <impedance> [,<characterization>]

Description

Reads out the AutoCal module characterization data. One command call returns one S-parameter array according to the specified parameters. The data is thermo compensated or not depending on the current setting SENS:CORR:COLL:ECAL:THER:COMP.  

The array size is 2N, where N is the number of points of the specified characterization (See the SYST:COMM:ECAL:POIN? command). For the n-th point, where n is from 1 to N:

<numeric 2n–1>        real part of S-parameter at the n-th characterization point

<numeric 2n>        imaginary part of S-parameter at the n-th characterization point

query only

Parameter

<path>:  {A|B|C|D|AB|AC|AD|BC|BD|CD|CHECk} specifies the port number or port pair or check state

<impedance>:  {SHORt|OPEN|LOAD|OPEN2|LOAD2|S11|S12|S21|S22|…|S44} specifies the impedance state or S-parameter

<characterization>:  {[FACTory]|USER1|USER2|USER3} specifies the name of the characterization, if omitted the factory characterization is used

The allowable combinations of parameter <path> and parameter <impedance> are as follows:

<path>

<impedance>

Description

A, B, C, D

SHORt, OPEN, LOAD, OPEN2, LOAD2
