Instrument/Connection State
The three colors of the state indicator in front of the instrument's name distinguish
between the following states:
●
Gray: the instrument is configured and activated in the R&S SGMA-GUI but there is
no connection to the instrument.
●
Green: the instrument is active, the connection is working and the instrument can
be manually and remotely operated.
●
Red: the instrument is in one of the following states:
– Standby state
To operate the instrument manually, it has to be switched to ready state (see
"To return the instrument from standby to ready state" on page 170).
– Instrument locked
The red state indication together with the message "Instrument Locked" in the
"Info" line indicates that the instrument is locked for Exclusive Access from
another SGMA-GUI or controller.
– The instrument is performing a time consuming operation, e.g. a selftest.
Maximum Frequency
The numbers in the rectangular box
on the left of the instrument's name indicate the
maximum frequency of the instrument.
When the Eco mode is turned on, the rectangular is colored in green and the frequency
shown in the rectangular corresponds to the maximum frequency available in this
mode.
Pulse Modulation
A sign on the left of the instrument's name indicates that the pulse modulation is
switched on.
Instrument Name/ IP Address
Displays the alias name of the instrument and the IP address, as set by the parameters
in "SGMA-GUI > Setup > Instruments > Add/Edit Instruments" dialog.
Click the key to access a menu tree for configuring the available instrument's settings,
e.g. "Level" settings.
Freq/Freq (Offs)
Sets the RF frequency, incl. enabled frequency offset.
The following apples:
"Freq" = Frequency + Offset
The value of the parameter "SGMA-GUI main panel > instrument name > Frequency/
Phase > Frequency" is the RF frequency at the RF output without the frequency offset.
The icon "Freq (Offs)" indicates that a frequency offset is applied.
Remote command:
