Programming Preparations

Before programming, you need to prepare the following tasks:

1. Make sure that your PC has been installed with the NI-VISA library (available to

download from the NI website

http://www.ni.com/visa

). In this manual, the default

installation path is C:\Program Files\IVI Foundation\VISA.

2. In this manual, the signal generator communicates with the PC via the USB

interface. Use the USB cable to connect the signal generator to the PC via the USB

DEVICE interface on the rear panel of the signal generator.

3. After the signal generator is properly connected to the PC, connect the signal

generator to power source and turn it on.

4. In this case, "Found New Hardware Wizard" dialog box appears on the PC. Please

install "USB Test and Measurement Device (IVI)" according to the instructions.

5. Acquire the USB VISA descriptor of the microwave signal generator: run Ultra

Sigma and search for the microwave signal generator resource currently connected
