Radio Frequency State
Activates input from the "RF Input" connector.
For R&S FSW85 models with two input connectors, you must define which input
source is used for each measurement channel.
"Input 1"
1.00 mm RF input connector for frequencies up to 85 GHz (90 GHz
with option R&S FSW-B90G)
"Input2"
1.85 mm RF input connector for frequencies up to 67 GHz

Input Coupling
The RF input of the R&S FSW can be coupled by alternating current (AC) or direct cur-
rent (DC).
AC coupling blocks any DC voltage from the input signal. This is the default setting to
prevent damage to the instrument. Very low frequencies in the input signal may be dis-
torted.
However, some specifications require DC coupling. In this case, you must protect the
instrument from damaging DC input voltages manually. For details, refer to the data
sheet.

Impedance
The R&S FSW has an internal impedance of 50 Ω. However, some applications use
other impedance values. In order to match the impedance of an external application to
the impedance of the R&S FSW, an impedance matching pad can be inserted at the
input. If the type and impedance value of the used matching pad is known to the
R&S FSW, it can convert the measured units accordingly so that the results are calcu-
lated correctly.
(See "Reference Level" on page 452).
This function is not available for input from the optional Digital Baseband Interface. Not
all settings are supported by all R&S FSW applications.
