FAQ 2013-05-09

How do I find the HOST ID of my instrument or PC?
Agilent software options are licensed to many different types of hardware, using a unique hardware identifier called the Host ID. The Host ID is composed of 1, 2, or 3 elements, depending upon the software model and the target hardware platform.

FAQ 2013-05-07

Is the performance of 0.4% EVM for 160 MHz 802.11ac best test result or average performance for N5182B MXG or N5172B EXG X-Series signal generators?
0.4% EVM is characteristic data of a small sample of N5182B MXG signal generators using the PXA and VSA 89601B.

FAQ 2012-12-26

How does DC calibration affect channel corrections?
If a DC calibration is run with channel corrections applied, this may or may not degrade performance slightly.

FAQ 2012-12-26

Which USB power sensors are supported on the X-Series signal generators?
All Agilent U200xx USB power sensors are supported. in the future, ...

FAQ 2012-12-26

Do User channel corrections cover multiple attenuator steps?
Yes. Bypass step, 0 dB step, and 5 dB step.

FAQ 2012-12-26

For User channel correction calibration, is it better to do a spot user cal or over an overlapping range?
Overlapping is good idea, but not required.

FAQ 2012-12-26

When you perform the User channel correction routine, do you need to compensate for the cable between spectrum analyzer or power meter and source?
No, the cable error has been calibrated.

FAQ 2012-12-26

Is there SCPI code compatibility from the 8662A or 8663A to the X-Series signal generators?
Yes

FAQ 2012-12-26

Are there any S1 S2 measurements with power sensors on the X-Series signal generators?
No, however, the “User” channel correction routine in X-Series vector signal generators measures DUT channel response in phase and amplitude with power sensor.

FAQ 2012-12-26

Do temperature changes affect the factory channel correction calibration?
temperature changes, channel correction calibration, factory correction calibration,x-series signal generators

FAQ 2012-12-26

For User channel correction, how many unique calibration files are supported?
We can support thousands on internal solid state drive.

FAQ 2012-12-26

Can running user correction calibration over a narrower range improve calibration?
No, the number of points is always fixed at a 5 MHz interval

FAQ 2012-12-26

Is the channel correction a new feature?
No, it has been available on the MXG since 2009. However, the functionality in the X-Series signal generators has been significantly improved since the first-generation MXG implementation.

FAQ 2012-12-26

What is the difference between the User channel correction and the factory channel correction?
See the EXG data sheet or MXG data sheet

FAQ 2012-12-26

For User channel correction calibration, when frequency is tuned out of “user” correction frequency range, is factory correction applied?
Yes, we apply smoothing between cal arrays to ensure no discontinuity.

FAQ 2012-12-26

How long is the factory channel correction calibration good?
The factory channel correction lasts the life of the source.
