Glossary
A
Active Entry The currently selected, and
therefore editable, entry or parameter
ARB Arbitrary waveform generator
AWG Arbitrary waveform generator. Additive
white Gaussian noise
B
BBG Media Baseband generator media. Volatile
memory, where waveform files are played or
edited.
BNC Connector Bayonet Neill- Concelman
connector. A type of RF connector used to
terminate coaxial cable.
C
CCW Counterclockwise
C/N Carrier- to- noise ratio
CW Continuous wave. Clockwise
D
DHCP Dynamic host communication protocol
Dwell Time In a step sweep (see page 28), the
time that the signal is settled and you can make
a measurement before the sweep moves to the
next point.
E
EVM Error vector magnitude; the magnitude of
the vector difference at a given instant between
the ideal reference signal and the measured
signal.
G
GPIB General purpose interface bus. An 8- bit
parallel bus common on test equipment.
H
Hardkey A labeled button on the instrument.
I
IF Intermediate frequency
Int Media Internal media. Non−volatile signal
generator memory, where waveform files are
stored.
IP Internet protocol. The network layer for the
TCP/IP protocol suite widely used on Ethernet
networks.
L
LAN Local area network
LO Local oscillator
LXI LAN extension for instrumentation. An
instrumentation platform based on industry
standard Ethernet technology designed to
provide modularity, flexibility, and performance
to small- and medium- sized systems. See also,

P
Persistent Settings (States) Settings unaffected
by preset, user preset, or power cycle.
Point- to- point Time In a step sweep (see
page 28), the sum of the dwell time plus
processing time, switching time, and settling
time.
