Description

Identifies an S-parameter file to use when creating a fixture component with the :TDR:DEEMbed:FCOMponent:LOAD command. The number of ports that are defined in the imported s-parameter file determines the number of ports in the resulting fixture component. For example, importing a four-port s-parameter files results in a four-port fixture component. The default folder for S-parameter files is %USER_DATA_DIR%\S-Parameter Data.

Default User Folder

User-Data Folders

The default folder for storing S-Parameter files is in %USER_DATA_DIR%\S-Parameter Data as shown in this picture. It is good practice to include a path substitution string with the filename. For example, %USER_DATA_DIR%\S-Parameter Data\filename.

File names must include a path when using the child :FNAMe command. The :FNAMe command is not affected by a Default Setup or Factory Preset.

Specifying a path using a path substitution string in the filename ensures that the file will be saved in (or loaded from) the standard user-data folder. Failure to use a path substitution string may result either in a file created in an parent folder or a file error.
