range and at least one range to either side of the reference range. The maximum num-
ber of ranges is 30. Note that the R&S
FPL1000 uses the same ranges in each power
class. Therefore, the contents of the ranges of each defined power class have to be
identical to the first power class. The
Start
and
Stop
values of the two
Limit
nodes
that are used to determine the power class are an exception. Note also that you must
define two limit nodes: one that defines the limit in absolute values and one in relative
values. Make sure units for the
Start
and
Stop
nodes are identical for each
Limit
node.
on page 302. The child nodes and attributes of this
element are shown in
The following tables show the child nodes and attributes of each element and show if a
child node or attribute is mandatory for the R&S
FPL1000 to interpret the file or not.
The hierarchy of the XML cannot be seen in the tables. View one of the predefined files
already stored on the R&S
FPL1000 in the "
C:
\ProgramData\Rohde-Schwarz\ZNL-FPL\sem_std
" directory, or check the struc-
ture as shown below.
Below, a basic example of the structure of the file is shown, containing all mandatory
attributes and child nodes. Note that the
PowerClass
element and the
Range
element
are themselves elements of the
BaseFormat
element. They must be inserted where
noted. They are separated here simply to provide a better overview. Also, no example
values are given here to allow a quick reference to the tables above. Italic font shows
the placeholders for the values.

The
BaseFormat
element is structured as follows:
