The R&S FSW is controlling an external generator (requires option R&S FSW-
B10).
NOR: the measurements are normalized with the results of the external gener-
ator calibration
APX (approximation): the measurements are normalized with the results of the
external generator calibration; however, the measurement settings have been
changed since calibration
If neither label is displayed, no calibration has been performed yet or normali-
zation is not active.
For details, see the "External Generator Control" section in the R&S FSW User
Manual.
"LVL" A level offset is applied to the external generator signal (only if external genera-
tor control is active).
"Inp: Input 2" For R&S FSW85 models with two RF input connectors only: the second input
connector "RF2" is the current input source for the channel
"B2000" A connected oscilloscope is being used to acquire data with up to 2 GHz band-
width (requires bandwidth extension option R&S FSW-B2000)
"B5000" A connected oscilloscope is being used to acquire data with up to 5 GHz band-
width (requires bandwidth extension option R&S FSW-B5000)
Changing the Channel Name
The measurement channels are labeled with their default name. If that name
already exists, a sequential number is added. You can change the name of the
measurement channel by double-tapping the name in the channel bar and enter-
ing a new name.
Note: Channel name restrictions. Channel names can have a maximum of 31
characters, and must be compatible with the Windows conventions for file names.
In particular, they must not contain special characters such as ":", "*", "?".
7.1.2 Window Title Bar
Each channel in the R&S FSW display can contain several windows. Each win-
dow can display either a graph or a table as a result of the channel measurement.
Which type of result evaluation is displayed in which window is defined in the dis-
play configuration (see Chapter 7.6, "Displaying Results", on page 108). The win-
dow title bar indicates which type of evaluation is displayed.
