  • Page 22: Instrument

    ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings Instrument Specifies a configured instrument to be used for input. Input 1 / Input 2 For instruments with two input connectors, you must define which input source is used for each measurement channel.

  • Page 23: High Pass Filter 1 To 3 Ghz

    ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings To avoid the LO feedthrough the spectrum analyzer provides an alternative signal path to the A/D converter, referred to as the direct path. By default, the direct path is selected automatically for RF frequencies close to zero. However, this behavior can be disabled.

  • Page 24: B2000 State

    ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings "Waveform" The data is input in its original waveform format and converted to I/Q data in the R&S VSE software. No additional options are required on the R&S oscilloscope. For data imports with large bandwidths, this format is more conven- ient as it allows for longer record lengths if appropriate memory options are available on the R&S oscilloscope.

    ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings Input source oscilloscope I/Q mode: on page 90 INPut<ip>:RF:CAPMode:IQ:SRATe Oscilloscope Splitter Mode Activates the use of the power splitter inserted between the [IF 2 GHZ OUT] connector of the R&S FSW and the [CH1] and [CH3] input connectors of the oscilloscope. Note that this mode requires an additional alignment with the power splitter.

  • Page 26: Db Minimum Attenuation

    ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings "Auto Narrow" Automatically applies the most suitable narrowband preselection fil- ters in a measurement, depending on the bandwidth you have selected. For measurement frequencies up to 30 MHz, the connected instru- ment uses combinations of lowpass and highpass filters. For higher frequencies, the connected instrument uses bandpass filters.
  • Page 27 ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings If the Frequency Response Correction option (R&S VSE-K544) is installed, the R&S VSE HRP UWB application also supports frequency response correction using Touch- stone (.snp) files or .fres files. Encrypted .wv files can also be imported. Note, however, that traces resulting from encrypted file input cannot be exported or stored in a saveset.
  • Page 28 ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings If enabled, the required number of samples are inserted as zeros at the beginning and end of the file. The entire input data is analyzed. However, the additional zeros can effect the determined spectrum of the I/Q data. If zero padding is enabled, a status message is displayed.

  • Page 32 ® Configuration R&S VSE-K149 Input and Frontend Settings When you switch off electronic attenuation, the RF attenuation is automatically set to the same mode (auto/manual) as the electronic attenuation was set to. Thus, the RF attenuation can be set to automatic mode, and the full attenuation is provided by the mechanical attenuator, if possible.
