For Phase-Coherent multiple channel operation, M9381A-012 option is required for
each PXIe VSG and M9391A-012 option is required for each PXIe VSA. For a single
chassis, multiple channel system, you can share a single M9301A PXIe Synthesizer
with up to four PXIe VSG or PXIe VSA instruments. For a multiple chassis, multiple
channel system, you can use Port 1a of the M9301A PXIe Synthesizer routed
through a V2802A LO Distribution Network to connect up to eight PXIe VSG or PXIe
VSA instruments.
Before enabling shared synthesizer functionality, install the modules and cable as
recommended in the previous sections.
