Retrieving the S-Parameters
The R&S
HA-Z24E stores the S-parameters as a touchstone (
.S2P
) file on the
device. You can read out those values from a connected PC.
4.1
Prerequisites
To read out values from the R&S
HA-Z24E, the PC must meet the following pre-
requisites:
●
Windows7 or Windows10 operating system in the 64-bit version
●
Two free USB output connectors for power supply and communication with
the preamplifier
Note that the R&S
HA-Z24E must always be connected to both USB ports to
obtain sufficient supply current. If connected to only one USB port, the
R&S
HA-Z24E does not work.
