Signature–MathWorks Connectivity (Option 40 only)

1.Select MATLAB from the Tools drop-down menu or the toolbar icon. This brings up a dialog for configuring what is sent to MATLAB as shown below:

Figure 6-1.MATLAB Setup Dialog

2.Toggle the Connect to MATLAB button to On (setup information is always sent when you select Connect to MATLAB and close the dialog).

3.If you want to send the IQ data to MATLAB rather than the trace data, select the advanced tab and toggle IQ Data to On.

Note: When sending IQ Data to MATLAB, the MATLAB Setup dialog must be left open.

The active traces can come from a variety of measurements including spectrum (swept or FFT), zero- span, constellation, or vector diagram. For the I/Q vector output, you need to configure the sample rate, record length, IF bandwidth, whether the input comes from the RF or I/Q (if available), and the Wideband IF anti-aliasing filter.

Note: Other hardware settings will be done elsewhere. These settings include:

Center Frequency (Span=0)

Reference Level and Attenuation

Trigger Source, Level, and Position

Sweep (Single or Continuous)

4.After a few moments, you will see a MATLAB window. Click on the MATLAB window or use Alt-Tab to make it the active window.
