6.1 RF Source
Option 506 6.00 GHz
For E7760B: Dependent on port selected
For EXM, if license 5WC is present, the frequency range should be limited to: 1.1GHz-1.7GHz, 2.4GHz-
2.5GHz, 4.8GHz-6.0GHz. If the user-defined frequency is outside of range, reports error message
“Settings conflict; Frequency is outside available range”
6.1.9.8 Rx/Tx Coupling
Allows coupling between the frequency of the Internal Source, RF Output
Frequency, and the instrument Center Frequency. For all settings except NONE, this
parameter couples the Center Frequency of the instrument to the RF Output
Frequency of the source. Valid setting changes result in the Analyzer CF and RF
Output Frequency parameters being set to the same value, plus the "Rx/Tx Offset"
on page 1973.
The four states for coupling are:
SOURce
Source follows Analyzer
Coupling is in one direction only. Changes to the Center Frequency will result in the RF Output Frequency
being set to the same value, with any Rx/Tx Frequency Offset applied. Changes to the RF Output
Frequency will not change the Center Frequency and will change Rx/Tx Frequency Coupling to None
ANALyzer
Analyzer follows Source
Coupling is in one direction only. Changes to the RF Output Frequency will result in the Center Frequency
being set to the same value, with any Rx/Tx Frequency Offset applied. Changes to the Center Frequency
will not change the RF Output Frequency and will change Rx/Tx Frequency Coupling to None
BOTH
Analyzer/Source Coupled
Coupling is bi-directional. Changes to the Center Frequency will result in the RF Output Frequency being
set to the same value, with any Rx/Tx Frequency Offset applied. Changes to the RF Output Frequency will
result in the Center Frequency being set to the same value, with any Rx/Tx Frequency Offset applied
NONE
None
RF Output Frequency and CF Frequency are independently controlled
