5.2 HARDWARE CONFIGURATION

The HSX Series synthesizer platform is a user defined platform. The configuration is
setup at the Holzworth factory based on the configuration defined by the end user.
Three primary categories define the final configuration of a unit.

5.2.1 NUMBER OF CHANNELS

The HSX part number signifies the number of independent channels available in the
unit. The current revision of the design is revision A. A four channel unit is defined as
an HSX9004A.
No. Channels
Part Number
NOTE: Amplitude accuracy may vary when operated outside of channel operating
temperature specified in section 6.3. Internal channel temperature should be monitored
using the ":TEMP?" command (see Appendix A). External cooling is recommended to
regulate internal temperature depending on ambient operating conditions and number of
integrated channels.

5.2.2 LOADED CHANNEL FREQUENCIES

The channel frequencies are defined at the time of a product purchase order. To
identify what channel frequencies are loaded, refer to the "Loaded Options" designator
scribed into the front panel of the instrument (at the left side of the power switch).
Frequency Range
10MHz - 6GHz
10MHz - 12GHz
10MHz – 24GHz
10MHz - 40GHz
5.2.3 LOADED OPTIONS & AVAILABLE ACCESSORIES
Additional factory loaded options are also defined in the "Loaded Options" designator on
the front panel. These options further customize the HSX Series to an application and
are loaded at the factory when the unit is initially built. Accessories are external to the
HSX platform and can be ordered separately.
