2. Use suitable cables to connect the RF A/B and REF OUT connectors of the
R&S SMW to the signal analyzer or the DUT.
Upon the receiving of an external trigger event, the R&S SMW starts the signal
generation and then generates a continuous signal. An "Arm" stops the signal gen-
eration. A subsequent trigger event causes a restart of the signal generation.

2.3.4 Enabling and Configuring a Marker Signal
Test setups often require that an external device is synchronized to the generated data
stream. For this purpose, the R&S SMW can output marker signals (or markers) addi-
tionally to the generated signal. The R&S SMW provides several regular marker sig-
nals and marker signals specific to the firmware option. With suitable marker settings
for instance, you can mark slot or frame boundaries or mark the start of a particular
modulation symbol.
This example extends further the configurations performed in Chapter 2.3.2, "Generat-
ing a Digitally Modulated Signal", on page 69. We assume a default connector map-
ping (see Figure 2-9).
