Limitations
The following are the limitations while using the M8046A and M8062A
modules in the same setup:
• The M8046A does not support all sequencer word width settings of a
M8041A/M8062A combination.
• Even though M8041A/M8062A and M8046A support a common
sequencer word width of 1, they internally work with a different
granularity and therefore cannot be used in the same sequence. Instead
individual sequences need to be defined for M8062A Data Out, Data In
and M8046A.
• In order to run the M8062A Data Out and M8046A Data In at the same
symbol rate, the CLK IN frequency of M8046A needs to be specified
manually. To do this, disable 'Follow SYS CLK' under Clock and specify
CLK IN frequency and multiplier as required for the setup.
