DM Lists

The following section brings together the commands for defining and managing the
data lists and control lists for digital modulation.

Lists are stored as files with specific file extensions in a user-definable directory (see

Table 7-2

). To specify the default directory, use the command 

:MMEMory:

CDIRectory

. To access files in this directory, enter their file name; the path and

extension are optional.

Table 7-2: Overview of the used list types

List type

Content

File extension

Data List

Digital modulation data

*.dm_iqd

Control List

Digital modulation control data

*.dm_iqc

User Standards

User settings of digital modulation

*.dm_stu

Usr Filter

Usr filter settings

*.vaf

User Mapping

User mapping settings

*.vam

It is not possible to use other file extensions with the commands. Attempting to do so
will cause an error message. If the file extension is changed in any other way (e.g. by
directly accessing the file system) the lists are no longer recognized and therefore
invalid.

The 

CLISt

 commands always create a binary control list, even if ASCII format is

specified.
Therefore, to create a 

*.wv

 file with R&S WinIQSIM2 using a control list, use the input

control list in ASCII format. Refer to the example in 

Chapter 7.4.4, "Creating an ASCII

C-List Manually"

, 

on page 509 for more information.
