X-Series PXA/UXA

Corrections

Correction Selection Mode

Determines whether test environment corrections are applied to the acquired waveform data.

Choices: Disabled | Automatic | Manual

Correction Environment

Enter calibration environment name to filter correction file search when Correction Selection is set to Automatic.

Correction File Name

Select correction file to be applied when Correction Selection is set to Manual (file extension .acal). When Correction Selection is set to Automatic, the automatically selected file will be displayed here.

S-Parameter File Name

Select the full path of the S-Parameter correction file to be used by the analyzer.

Frequency

Frequency Coupling

Enable or disable coupling of Analyzer Hardware Center Frequency and Analyzer Span to Source Hardware and Signal definition.

Center Frequency

Enter analyzer center frequency when Frequency Coupling is disabled. When Frequency Coupling is enabled, center frequency is automatically determined by Source Hardware Frequency and Center Frequency Offset settings.

Analyzer Span

Enter analyzer frequency span (bandwidth) when Frequency Coupling is disabled. When Frequency Coupling is enabled, analyzer span is automatically determined by Signal definition and Span Scale Factor settings.

Center Frequency Offset

Enter offset to apply to automatically determined Center Frequency setting when Frequency Coupling is enabled.

Span Scale Factor

Enter scale factor to apply to automatically determined analyzer frequency span setting when Frequency Coupling is enabled.

Sample Rate

Displays the analyzer hardware sample rate.

Input Level

Input Range Coupling

Enable or disable coupling of the analyzer input range to the Source Hardware and Signal definition settings.

Input Range

Enter input range of the analyzer if Input Range Coupling is disabled. If Input Range Coupling is enabled, Input Range is automatically determined by Source Hardware Amplitude and Input Range Offset settings.

Input Range Offset

Enter offset to apply to automatically determined Input Range setting when Input Range Coupling is enabled.

Input Reference Impedance

Select analyzer hardware input termination impedance.

Input

RF Port

Select the RF port on an instrument that has multiple RF input ports (e.g., N9041B UXA Signal Analyzer).

RF Input - Default selection.

RF Input2 - This choice selects Input2 when connected to an N9041B UXA Signal Analyzer. Input2 is still visible and selectable when connected to other X-Series signal analyzers that do not support Input2, but it will be coerced to Input1 when data acquisition happens.

Performance Tuning

Phase Noise Optimization Mode

Select which phase noise tuning algorithm to use when acquiring data with an X-Series analyzer. For details see X-Series analyzer documentation.

Choices: Best Close In | Best Wide Offset | Fast Tuning | Balanced | Spur Avoidance

Mixer Mode

Toggle between high-side and low-side mixing. The association of Normal and Alternate mixing modes with high-side and low-side mixing is instrument-specific.
