These commands allow you to configure the port setup.
Sets/queries the combination of ports that the test set's source transmits on if SOURce:PORT:SELection[?] is set to BMASk.
The following list details the setting required to switch on an individual port:
RFIO1: 1
RFIO2: 2
RFIO3: 4
RFIO4: 8
The following table details the setting required to switch on the various combinations of all four ports:

Setting Range: 1 to 15
Query Range: 1 to 15
Preset and *RST Setting: 1
Test Set Requirements: N8300A Wireless Networking Test Set Version A.06.50 and above, option 404 required.
Example:
SOURce:PORT:BMASk 3
Sets the source to transmit on ports RFIO1 and RFIO2.
Use this command to tell the instrument to either user the MIMO ports for TX as described by the SOURCe:PORT:BMASk SCPI command or to use a single port described by the SOURce:PORT:PRIMary SCPI command.
PRIMary
The test set's source is routed through the currently selected port
set using SOURce:PORT:PRIMary[?]
(often referred to as the Primary RF Port).
BMASk
The test set's source is routed through a combination of ports set
using SOURce:PORT:BMASk[?].
Setting Range: PRIMary | BMASk
Preset and *RST Setting: PRIMary
Test Set Requirements: N8300A Wireless Networking Test Set Version A.06.50 and above, option 404 required.
Example:
SOURce:PORT:SELection BMASk
Sets the broadcast mask to define the port selection.
Sets/queries the port (often referred to as the Primary RF Port) to be used for transmit and receive.
Setting Range: RFIO1 | RFIO2 | RFIO3 | RFIO4
Query Range: RFIO1 | RFIO2 | RFIO3 | RFIO4
Preset and *RST Setting: RFIO1
Test Set Requirements: N8300A Wireless Networking Test Set Version A.06.50 and above, option 404 required.
Example:
SOURce:PORT:PRIMary RFIO4
Sets RFIO4 as the I/O port.
