Note: This object and all properties and methods are replaced with Converter Object which can be used for all converter application.
Contains the methods and properties to setup FCA Mixer measurements.
For performing calibrations, use either the SMC Type Object or the VMC Type Object.
Access the IMixer Interface through the Measurement Object. If the particular type of Measurement that was created supports IMixer, then the program determines this at run time and can access the functionality exposed by IMixer. Because the determination of IMixer support is not made until runtime, the program should handle the case where IMixer is not supported on the object.
Dim app As AgilentPNA835x.Application
Set app = CreateObject("AgilentPNA835x.Application", "analyzerName")
app.Preset
' FCA Measurements can't share the channel with standard measurements
' Because preset creates a single measurement in channel 1, we first delete the standard measurement
Dim standardMeas As IMeasurement
Set standardMeas = app.ActiveMeasurement
standardMeas.Delete
' Create a Measurement object, in this case using the IMeasurement interface
Dim meas As IMeasurement
Set meas = app.CreateCustomMeasurementEx(1, "SMC_Forward.SMC_ForwardMeas", "SC21")
' See if this measurement object supports IMixer
Dim mixer As IMixer
Set mixer = meas
Example: How to create and calibrate a standard SMC or VMC measurement or a fixed output SMC measurement.
