Microbutton action
You can define an action to be performed by the R&S
FSV/A when the probe's micro-
button (if available) is pressed. Currently, a single data acquisition via the probe can be
performed simply by pressing the microbutton.
RF probes
To connect an active probe to the RF Input
1. Connect the R&S
RT-ZA9 adapter to the RF Input connector on the R&S
FSV/A.
2. Connect the R&S
RT-ZA9 adapter's USB cable to a USB connector on the
R&S
FSV/A.
3. Connect the probe to the adapter.
4. In the "Input source" settings, select the "Input connector": "RF Probe".
Probes are automatically detected when you plug them into the R&S
FSV/A. The
detected information on the probe is displayed in the "Probes" tab of the "Input"
dialog box.
To determine whether the probe has been connected properly and recognized by the

Impedance and attenuation
The measured signal from the probe is attenuated internally by the probe's specific
attenuation. For RF probes, the attenuation is compensated using a pre-defined "Probe
on RF Input" transducer factor. This special transducer factor is automatically activated
before the common RF data processing when you select "RF probe" as the input con-
nector. The reference level is adjusted automatically.
