R&S AFQ100A

Using Norton Antivirus

Virus-protection software Symantec Norton Antivirus 2005 has been successfully tested for compatibility
with the measurement instrument software on R&S AFQ.
However, Norton Antivirus may affect the behavior of the instrument in terms of settling time or stability.
Norton Antivirus 2005 has been subjected to detailed tests with R&S AFQ Firmware version V1.40 and
the paging file settings given below. The system remains very reliable. However, rare impact on the
settling time has been experienced ( slight degradations of settling time in 2% of samples out of
specification).

Preparing the Installation of Norton Antivirus

The installation is performed in the Windows XP operating system. The operating system can only be
accessed if an external keyboard and/or a mouse is connected. Operation by mouse only without the
external keyboard is possible if the on-screen keyboard is used. To ensure recognition of the external
devices, the instrument has to be switched off prior to connecting them.
1. Switch off the instrument
2. Connect external keyboard and/or mouse to the USB interface.
3. Switch on the instrument
4. Open the start menu (either by pressing the Windows key (on the keyboard next to the Ctrl key) or
by moving the mouse to the bottom of the display and subsequent clicking on Start).
5. Click on Control Panel and then System.
6. Select the Advanced and click on Performance Settings
