Direct Data Connectivity

Direct Data Connectivity (Option 89601101C), or User Input, allows a user to push live IQ data into the VSA software without the use of hardware or recording files. This data can be acquired from many sources, such as hardware that does not have a VSA role driver written for it, results of a simulation, data stored in a test results database, or a stream of data in an application that needs visualization or analysis performed.

.NET API 1) Access Preamble Indicator, or 2) Application Programming Interface - See Direct Data Connectivity Console Example for an example application that goes through the steps of acquiring data using the UserInput classes within the VSA software's .NET API.
SCPI API - See Direct Data Connectivity SCPI API Python Example for a python example that pushes data using the VSA software's UserInput SCPI commands and queries.
