The table in the Port Configuration dialog contains the individual test port properties. Each table row
corresponds to one logical or physical port; the number of rows is equal to the number of test ports of
the analyzer.
Many measurement tasks can be performed with default port settings. Consequently the Port
Configuration dialog does not show all columns in its default configuration. Use the Displayed Columns
button to customize the table and display or hide columns.
Measured Ports (Meas/Group)
The ports that can be used for the measurement (as selected in the Balanced and Measured Ports
dialog) are indicated in the first column of the Port Configuration table (Meas). The selected ports are
used for the calculation of derived (mixed mode, Z, Y) parameters; they can be source ports and/or
receive ports.
A measured port can be configured as a pure receive port by selecting RF Off in the Source section.
If one or more port groups to be measured are defined in the Define Measured Ports tab of the
Balanced and Measured Ports dialog, then the column header changes from Meas. to Group and the
column shows the group names (capital letters).
The settings are grouped together in four sections:
• Logical Port shows the properties of the balanced ports after they have been defined in the
Balanced and Measured Ports dialog. This section is hidden if no balanced ports are defined.
• Physical Port shows and/or defines the properties of the physical (unbalanced) ports of the
analyzer.
• Source shows and/or defines the generator settings at each physical port of the analyzer.
• Receiver shows and/or defines the receiver settings at each physical port of the analyzer.
Below the table, two buttons open additional dialogs:
• Displayed Columns... opens a dialog to customize the port configuration table and display or
hide columns.
• Balanced and Measured Ports... opens a dialog to select a balanced port configuration and
