Instrument Selection and Settings

You can now choose from multiple combinations of instruments such as a Signal Generator and Power Meter or Signal Generator and Spectrum Analyzer.

Available Modes of Operation

1.VNA ONLY

2.Signal Generator and Power Meter

3.Signal Generator and Spectrum Analyzer

4.Signal Generator and Multimeter

5.Special Recieve Only Mode.

6.Emulation Mode. (Simulated Dipole Measurement) (NOTE: Any instrument that you want to select must be configured in the VEE I/O Configuration program prior to selection)

Source Instrument Settings

NOTE: These settings also apply for the RECEIVE

ONLY instrument.

Start / Stop Frequency- Enter the frequency in GHz

Decimals are ok , example: 450Mhz = .45

Number of points- Similar to a VNA configuration you may choose the number of frequency points for the sweep, click the “Freq Increments” window to display the calculated Frequency Step.

Output Power- Sets the output power of the Signal

Generator. format is dBm.

Receive Instrument -Power Meter Settings

Trigger Mode- Changes the way the power meter reads the sensor, this setting is only applied to certain meters.

Trigger Delay- This sets the delay / Settling time between when the Signal generator is called and the power meter is queried for a reading. format is in seconds. Example: 1/10 second = .10

Sweep Delay- this sets the number of seconds the signal generator will wait before initiating the sweep. this allows larger antennas a chance to completely stop moving.
