FETCh:PVTime:MASK[:FAIL]:SEGment?

Function

GSM This command is not applicable to GSM.

GPRS

This query returns the mask error code for the entire multislot configuration. This error code indicates which parts, if any are causing the multislot configuration to fail the power versus time mask.

The error codes are:

  • 0 = No Mask Failures
  • 1 (bit 1) = Rising Edge Failure
  • 2 (bit 2) = Falling Edge Failure
  • 4 (bit 3) = Active Part of First Burst
  • 8 (bit 4) = First Guard Period
  • 16 (bit 5) = Active Part of Second Burst

The above list shows values which can be returned if any single error causes the multislot configuration to fail the mask. (For example, if 4 is returned the failure is due to the active part of the first burst. Note that the value returned could indicate a combination of errors which is causing the multislot configuration to fail. For example, if 9 is returned, this indicates that a rising edge failure and the first guard period has caused the failure.

The SETup:PVTime[:BURSt[1]]:TIME[:OFFSet][:SELected] SETup:PVTime:BURSt2:TIME[:OFFSet][:SELected] command sets up the number of offsets that are turned on and their time values. The SETup:PVTime[BURSt[1]]:TIME:POINts[:SELected]? SETup:PVTime:BURSt2:TIME:POINts[:SELected]? queries the number of offset points that are turned on, indicating the number of values to expect when you send this command.

Query

Range: -100 dBc to +10 dBc and 9.91 E+37 (NAN)

Resolution: 0.01 dB

GPRS

Queries the minimum power levels, from a number of multi-measurements, at each user-settable time offset appended to this command. The query returns the results for the burst that you specify. Specified time values must correspond to user-settable time offsets that are currently turned on, and must be rounded to the same values. (9.91 E+37 (NAN) is returned for specified offsets that do not correspond to offsets currently turned on).

Power levels are relative to the power versus time carrier power measurement.

The SETup:PVTime[:BURSt[1]]:TIME[:OFFSet][:SELected] SETup:PVTime:BURSt2:TIME[:OFFSet][:SELected] command sets up the number of offsets that are turned on and their time values. Measurements will be returned by this query in the same order they are listed in the command.

Query

Power levels:

  • Range: -100 dBc to +10 dBc and 9.91 E+37 (NAN)
  • Resolution: 0.01 dB
