Index

Feature

Displays the license option name for the feature or the capability options available in the software. All capability and connectivity options are locked to the target instrument. Feature capability is either Basic or Advanced. Feature connectivity is specific to the type of signal generator. The option number identifies the type of license, whether perpetual or time-based, fixed or transportable, and so on.

Minor Enhancement Updates (N7623B-Uxx)

The minor enhancement updates (MEU) option allows you to obtain the latest capabilities of the software. It is purchased as N7623B-MEU. However, each enhancement update is licensed as N7623B-Uxx, as shown in the image above. As more enhancements become available, the option suffix increments: U01, U02, U03 and so on. Purchasing MEU includes all the capabilities from previous MEU licenses. For example, purchasing the license for U03 includes everything that was in U01 and U02. If you had purchased an earlier MEU license, such as U01, and want the most recent MEU capabilities available in U03, purchasing another MEU license upgrades your software to the most current state.
