Displays the percentage distribution over the bins.
8.8.5.5 Configuring and using the binning function
Configuring a binning file
To specify the file for the binning measurement, proceed as follows:
1. On a PC, open an application that can store data in *.csv format, e.g. a spread-
sheet application.
2. Specify the required parameters and values in the given order:
a) #Signal: configures the control signals you can optionally assign for output at
the digital interface.
Possible values are:
● EOM: end of measurement
● OOB: out of bin
● BOTH: assigns both, the EOM and the OOB signal
If you enable both signals, the R&S LCX assigns the OOB signal to pin 7, and
EOM on pin 8. If you have only one signal enabled, it is assigned to pin 8.
b) #Measurement: sets the measurement parameter pair, e.g. Rs-X
c) #PrimaryFormat, #SecondaryFormat: determine the format the bin limits are
defined.
Possible values are:
● ABS: specifies the limits as minimum and maximum values, i.e 990 Ω to
1010 Ω.
● NOMABS: specifies the limits as nominal value +- deviation as absolute
value , i.e. 1000 Ω +- 10 Ω.
● NOMPCT: specifies the nominal value as absolute value, and the deviation
as percentage, i.e. 1000 Ω +- 1 %.
d) Pri0,Pri1, Sec0,Sec1: column headings of the following upper and lower limits
for the primary and secondary formats. In the following lines, you then specify
the upper and lower limits for each bin.
For an example, see Binning configuration data for a resistor measurement.
3. Save the file as a *.csv file type on the USB memory device.
Note: Consider that the filename must start with binning_*, otherwise the
R&S LCX does not display the file in the directory.
