Equipment Setup
Equipment Setup
Connect the equipment as shown below. Connect the RCal USB-C port to a
high power USB port on the signal analyzer’s front or rear panel (blue USB 3.0
or USB port with a lightening bolt next to it).
For External Source Control, the X-Series signal analyzer requires either Option
ESC or N90EMESCB.
These measurement examples show how to correct for absolute power
accuracy under the Swept SA application.
— Some examples involve the use of fixed attenuators, which should be
inserted into the RF path such that the attenuator is present in both the
signal generator to signal analyzer path and the RCal to signal analyzer
path.
— The switch in the diagram represents changing the physical connection to
the signal analyzer to use either the signal generator or RCal as the RF
input.
— The Trig connections between the signal generator and signal analyzer are
recommended for demos involving source control. The software trigger SW
trigger) can also be used without a physical connection. For the
measurement examples below, we will be using the SW trigger.
