Figure 5-8: Example of a test setup for upconverting a CW signal generated by the R&S SGS
For higher setting/ measuring speeds, use a PCIe switch and PCIe connections.
1. Connect the test equipment as shown on Figure 5-8:
a) Connect the R&S SGS, R&S SGU and the controller to a LAN switch.
b) Connect the [RF OUT] of the R&S SGS to the [LO IN] of the R&S SGU.
c) Connect the [TRIG] connectors of the R&S SGS and the R&S SGU.
d) Connect the [RF OUT] of the R&S SGU to the [RF IN] of the signal analyzer.
2. Switch on the R&S SGS and the R&S SGU.
The [POWER ON/STANDBY] keys have to be green and not blinking.
3. Press the [ID] keys on the front panels of the R&S SGS and the R&S SGU (only
required if the components are connected via a company network).
4. On the connected remote PC, start the R&S SGMA-GUI software application.
The main panel of the application and the configure instruments dialog open. Both
instruments are added automatically to the instruments list and to the main panel of
the R&S SGMA-GUI software.
The main panel provides a quick access to the main settings of the configured and
activated instruments. The display shows one row per instrument with the instru-
ment specific settings. The rows comprise the instrument, the connection state, the
used frequency and power level and the state of the RF output and the modulator.
