1. Configuration

The following figure is a composite of all supported instruments, so some parameters may not apply to your instrument.

Instrument Model Number

Displays the model number of the currently connected instrument. (Read-only)

Retrieve Instrument Model Number

Choice: Auto | Manual

Default: Auto

The application automatically retrieves and displays the model number of the currently connected instrument. (Read-only)

Parameter Optimization

Choice: Auto | Off

Default: Auto

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to enable or disable parameter optimization.

Auto – automatically overrides the current instrument settings and provides optimized settings.
Off – parameter optimization is not used.

Parameter Optimization selects the appropriate marker for RF control, and sets the appropriate marker routing to the instrument control. When Parameter Optimization is set to Auto, Marker 3 and Marker 4 source selection in Waveform Setup and the marker routing selected in Dual ARB Marker Utilities are overridden.

To manually set Marker 3 and Marker 4 source, the marker routing, or both, set Parameter Optimization to Off.

Perform DC I/Q Calibration

Choice: On | Off

Default: On

Double-click or use the drop-down menu to enable or disable automatic DC I/Q calibration.

On − the signal generator performs a DC I/Q calibration after downloading the waveform.
Off − the signal generator does not perform DC I/Q calibrations.
