DeviceDriverGenericConfigurationAbsorbingClamp

Note:

This page is used to show the configuration that is generic for all absorbing clamp device drivers. This page will automatically be embedded on all absorbing clamp device driver pages.

Configuration

The following tabs are available in the advanced configuration of the DeviceDriverGenericConfigurationAbsorbingClamp:

The frequency range of the DeviceDriverGenericConfigurationAbsorbingClamp 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 DeviceDriverGenericConfigurationAbsorbingClamp.

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.

Custom start frequency

If the Use default start frequency checkbox is unchecked, another start frequency (expressed in MHz) can be specified. The customized start frequency will then be used as the lowest usable frequency in a test for this device. The customized frequency can be a limitation or an extension of the default start frequency.

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.

Custom stop frequency

If the Use default stop frequency checkbox is unchecked, another stop frequency (expressed in MHz) can be specified. The customized stop frequency will then be used as the highest usable frequency in a test for this device. The customized frequency can be a limitation or an extension of the default stop frequency.

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 DeviceDriverGenericConfigurationAbsorbingClamp is used outside frequency range that is specified by the manufacturer. This may result to serious damage of your measurement device.
