For detailed information, see DifferentialView™ (True Mode Stimulus) Topology Identifies the stimulus configuration that is set in the True Mode Stimulus Configuration dialog box. The following topologies and port assignments are available in 4-port instruments: Port Select Identifies the port selection that is set in the True Mode Stimulus Configuration dialog box. Differential port pair selection of (1:2) or (3:4) is not valid when in TMS mode. Stimulus Identifies the stimulus that is set in the True Mode Stimulus Configuration dialog box. True Mode Stimulus Config Opens the DifferentialView – True Mode Stimulus dialog to select and configure a differential stimulus measurement. Ref. To Port Opens a dialog to select the frequency and phase offset reference port (can be any port 1 through 4). TMS Phase Offset Sets the fixed phase offset that is applied to the true differential drive for situations that require stimulus compensation. TMS Power Offset Sets the fixed power offset (in dB) that is applied to the true differential drive for situations that require stimulus compensation. Phase Start Sets the starting phase offset (± 3600°) in phase sweep configuration (CW only). Phase Stop Sets the starting phase offset (± 3600°) in phase sweep configuration (CW only). |

For detailed information, see PulseView™ PulseView Configuration Opens the PulseView Configuration Dialog Box. PRI Pulse Repetition Interval – Sets the primary clock synch pulse period in units of time. PRF Pulse Repetition Frequency – Sets the primary clock synch pulse repetition rate in units of hertz. Mode Opens the Pulse Mode menu to select the pulse mode. # of Points Sets the number of measurement points from the Start to the Stop time settings. # of Pulses Sets the number of pulse measurements to acquire. Receiver Selects a receiver channel to configure. Measurement Width Sets the measurement width time (aperture). Start Time Time to wait relative to T0 before measuring a pulse. Stop Time Time relative to T0 at which the measurement should stop. Delay Time relative to T0 before starting the measurement. Resolution Defines the minimum time resolution. |
For detailed information on this application menu, see Advanced Fast CW Mode Toggles the mode between Point by Point and Full Time Record. Note that depending on the mode selected, the time parameters change from Delay (for PBP) to Start/Stop (for FTR). Synch Interval Synchronization Interval – Sets the synch interval in units of time. Capture Duration Sets the amount of data (in terms of time) that will be collected. Measurement Width Sets the width of the time window that will be used in transforming to the frequency domain. The wider the measurement width, the lower the effective processing IF bandwidth. Delay (Point by Point mode only) Sets the delay time from the synch interval beginning (whether that is internally or externally generated) to the time when a measured width-worth of data will be analyzed. Start Time (Full Time Record mode only) Sets the beginning of the portion of the collected time record that will be analyzed. Stop Time (Full Time Record mode only) Sets the end of the portion of the time record that will be analyzed. | |
# of Points Sets the number of measurement points from the Start to the Stop time settings. Trigger Source Displays the trigger source that is selected from Other Setup (Addl.FCW Setup) menu.
