RFmxInstrMX.SelectActiveExternalAttenuationTable Method

public int SelectActiveExternalAttenuationTable(
	string selectorString,
	string tableName
)

Public Function SelectActiveExternalAttenuationTable ( 
	selectorString As String,
	tableName As String
) As Integer

Parameters

selectorString  String

Specifies the calibration plane name in which either the S-parameter table or the external attenuation table is stored. This input accepts the calibration plane name with the "calplane::" prefix. If you do not specify the calibration plane name, the default calibration plane instance is used. On a MIMO session, the default "" (empty string) selects the active external attenuation table for all the MIMO Ports. To configure external attenuation type for a specific MIMO port, use the port specifier with or without the calplane name. Example: "calplane::plane1/port::myrfsa1/0".

Note

For PXIe-5830/5831/5832 devices, port names should also be specified along with Calplane names. Hence, the valid selector is "calplane::<calplaneName>/port::<portName>". For a MIMO port, the valid selector string is "calplane::<calplaneName>/port::<deviceName>/<channelNumber>/<portName>". If you specify "port::all", all ports are considered configured. Use RFmxInstrMX.GetAvailablePorts method to get the valid port names.

Example:

""

"calplane::plane0"

"calplane::plane0/port::if0"

"port::if0"

"calplane::plane0/port::all"

"calplane::plane0/port::myrfsa1/0"

"calplane::plane0/port::myrfsa1/0, port::myrfsa2/0"

"calplane::plane0/port::myrfsa1/0/if0"

tableName  String

Specifies the name to be associated with external attenuation table within a calibration plane. Provide a unique name, such as "table1" to configure the table.
