Signal routing in standard mode
In Standard mode, the signal routing settings are a routing possibility suitable for
straightforward non-MIMO configurations. If you are familiar with other
Rohde & Schwarz signal generators, e.g. the R&S SMU or R&S AMU, these settings
provide a convenient way to configure the signal flow. Consider, however, that the
number of the possible configurations is rather limited. To experience the whole routing
performance of the instrument, use the more advanced configurations (see Chap-
ter 3.4, "System Configuration Settings", on page 137).
Other possibilities to configure the signal flow
The "Signal Routing" settings are just one of several methods you can use to configure
the signal flow and route the signal throughout the instrument. Refer to Chapter 3.2,
"Possible Ways to Configure the Signal Flow", on page 126 for an overview of all other
ways and their common application fields.
In the default state of the instrument, i.e. in "System Configuration > Mode = Stan-
dard", the baseband internal and external signals can be routed as defined in the
Table 3-7.
As shown in the table:

The internal baseband signal can be introduced into path A, path B or both
