Rohde & Schwarz ESL 6
The Rohde & Schwarz ESL 6 device driver is a Spectrum Analyser which is supported by RadiMation®.
Configuration
The following tabs are available in the advanced configuration of the Rohde & Schwarz ESL 6:
The frequency range of the Rohde & Schwarz ESL 6 as provided by the manufacturer is shown and selected as default. It is possible to overrule these frequencies and to manual adjust the allowed frequency range of the Rohde & Schwarz ESL 6.
Use default start frequency | If the checkbox is checked, the default start frequency will be used as the lowest usable frequency in a test for this device. |
Use default stop frequency | If the checkbox is checked, the default stop frequency will be used as the highest usable frequency in a test for this device. |
Specifying a different frequency range can be useful if for example:
- A device (like a coupler, antenna, injection device, cable, etc...) is still useable (but out of specification) outside the standard suggested frequency range.
- An external mixer is used to measure an extended frequency range.
- An up- or down-convertor is used to shift the frequency range.
- A newer model of a device is present that has an extended frequency range, and still uses the same remote control commands.
Be careful changing these setting as RadiMation® is no longer able to verify if the Rohde & Schwarz ESL 6 is used outside frequency range that is specified by the manufacturer. This may result to serious damage of your measurement device.
