PLSYZ, Fname, Ext, Lab, Opt, VAL_I1, VAL_J1, VAL_I2, VAL_J2, VAL_I3, VAL_J3, VAL_I4, VAL_J4
Converts and plots network parameters versus frequency or plots losses versus frequency.

File name and directory path of a Touchstone file (248 characters maximum, including the characters needed for the directory path). A Touchstone file may be created in ANSYS by performing a frequency sweep using the SPSWP command macro, or may it be supplied from another source. An unspecified directory path defaults to the working directory; in this case, you can use all 248 characters for the file name. Fname is only used for network parameters (Lab = S, Y, or Z).
Extension of Touchstone file (.snp where n is the number of ports). Ext is only used for network parameters (Lab = S, Y, or Z).
S | — | Scattering parameter (default) |
Y | — | Admittance parameter |
Z | — | Impedance parameter |
REFL | — | Reflection loss |
INSL | — | Insertion loss |
ISOL | — | Isolation loss |
VSWR | — | Voltage standing wave ratio |
For Lab = S, Y, or Z, format of Touchstone file:
MAG | — | Magnitude (default) |
ANG | — | Angle |
DB | — | Magnitude in dB units. Only available for scattering parameters (Lab = S). |
REAL | — | Real part of the parameter |
IMAG | — | Imaginary part of the parameter |
For Lab = REFL, INSL, or ISOL, DB (magnitude in dB units) is the only available option. For Lab = VSWR, MAG (mangitude) is the only available option.
For Lab = S, Y, or Z, index I of first parameter plotted. For example, SIJ. Defaults to 1.
For Lab = REFL, INSL, ISOL, or VSWR, output port number.
For Lab = S, Y, or Z, index J of first parameter plotted. For example, SIJ. Defaults to 1.
For Lab = REFL, INSL, ISOL, or VSWR, input port number.
For Lab = S, Y, or Z, index I and J of second, third, and fourth parameters plotted. For example, SIJ. No default.
For Lab = REFL, INSL, ISOL, or VSWR, VAL_I2 through VAL_J4 are not used.
Distributed ANSYS Restriction. This command is not supported in Distributed ANSYS.
