M9391A Release Notes

Version 1.2

Version 1.2.403.0

Release Date: August 2014

Enhancements

l

Added support for 89600 VSA Software stepped spectrum measurement (Option 89601B-SSA).

l

Added MultiChannelSync IVI interface and MultiChannel C# example to enable direct utilization of multi-channel
capability. Previous 1.1.300.0 release offered multi-channel support via 89600 VSA software only.

l

Improved speed performance.

l

Eliminated AgModularVSA IVI interface. All functionality is now accessed directly via the AgM9391 interface.

l

M9214A FPGA 1.0.2.3 available – Optional, not currently required for any new software features.

l

M9300A FPGA 1.0.1.0 available – Optional, not currently required for any new software features.

Critical Fixes

l

Fix enabling Modules.Reference.ProgrammableOutputTrigger properites to take effect.

l

Fixed issue causing a ReadIQData() exception after running an IF Flatness alignment.

This release is not binary compatible with prior releases of the IVI-C driver. Programs using the C/C++
IVI-C driver must be recompiled for this version of the driver. Similarly, programs compiled with this
version of the driver will not be compatible with older versions of the IVI-C driver. This incompatibility is
due to renumbering of attribute constants defined in the AgM9391.h include file.

M9300A-related documentation is available only after installing the M938x software, available at
www.agilent.com/find/M9381A-driver. (When you run the M938x installer, you may install only the
M9300A-related files if you wish.)

Version 1.2.417.1

Release Date: January 2014

Enhancements

Features added for 89600 VSA Software power spectrum measurements (Option 89601B-SSA):

l

Zero span measurements (power vs time)

l

Sweep trigger

l

IF Magnitude trigger (for gating and sweep trigger)

l

Equivalent sweep time

l

Enable higher Span/RBW ratios when using a 64 bit process

l

Support M9000 resource manager sharing with multi-channel configurations
