In this tab you configure the band and mixer settings.
RF Start ← External Mixer Setup ← External Mixer Config ← External Mixer
Displays the start frequency of the selected band. For pre-defined bands, the fre-
quency range is set automatically (see Table 3-22).
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer:FREQuency:STARt? on page 824
RF Stop ← External Mixer Setup ← External Mixer Config ← External Mixer
Displays the stop frequency of the selected band. For pre-defined bands, the fre-

Handover Freq. ← External Mixer Setup ← External Mixer Config ← External
Mixer
Defines the frequency at which the mixer switches from one range to the next (if two

the overlapping frequency range.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer:FREQuency:HANDover on page 824
Band ← External Mixer Setup ← External Mixer Config ← External Mixer
Defines the waveguide band or user-defined band to be used by the mixer.
The start and stop frequencies of the selected band are displayed in the "RF Start" and
"RF Stop" fields.
For a definition of the frequency range for the pre-defined bands, see Table 3-22).
The mixer settings for the user-defined band can be selected freely. The frequency
range for the user band is defined via the harmonics configuration (see "Range 1/2"
on page 527).
Note: The band formerly referred to as "A" is now named "KA".
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer:HARMonic:BAND on page 825
RF Overrange ← External Mixer Setup ← External Mixer Config ← External Mixer
Specifies whether the band limits are extended beyond "RF Start" and "RF Stop" due
to the capabilities of the used harmonics.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer:RFOVerrange[:STATe] on page 824
Preset Band ← External Mixer Setup ← External Mixer Config ← External Mixer
Restores the presettings for the selected band.
Note: changes to the band and mixer settings are maintained even after using the
