Description
Option RTS provides real time I and Q data to the instrument rear panel
Wideband Digital Bus I and Q connectors.

Signal Analyzer Hardware Requirements
The signal analyzer must contain the Wideband Digital IF and Wideband
Analog IF assemblies that are present when the analyzer has Option B2X or
B5X.
To verify the option is licensed, and the Wideband Digital hardware is present,
press System, Show System and verify the presence of one or more options
listed above (when Option B5X is present, you will also see Option B2X).
Then press System, Show Hardware and confirm the instrument can identify
the hardware. You will see both WB Analog IF and WB Digital IF listed. If
Option B5X is installed, you will see two WB Digital IF assemblies listed.
The signal analyzer must contain the Wideband Digital IF Extension board. This
board is also listed in the Show Hardware screen as WB DIF Extension.
The Wideband Digital IF Extension board is only present when Option RTS is
installed in the instrument, and is located at the right rear of the instrument.
The board has I and Q connectors that protrude out of slots in the rear panel,
and are labeled Wideband Digital Bus.
The Wideband Digital IF Extension board provides buffering and level shifting
to the I and Q signals that come from the Wideband Digital IF assembly via a
flex circuit cable. If the instrument contains Option B5X (two Wideband Digital
IF assemblies), there will be two flex cables.

The instrument must have the following options installed:
— N9040B-RT1 or N9040B-RT2, Real Time Analysis
— N9040B-RTS Real Time Data Streaming
Press System, Show System and verify the options listed above are present.
