Remote command:
Mixer Settings (Harmonics Configuration)
The harmonics configuration determines the frequency range for user-defined bands
(see
Range 1/Range 2 ← Mixer Settings (Harmonics Configuration)
Enables the use of one or two frequency ranges, where the second range is based on
another harmonic frequency of the mixer to cover the band's frequency range.
For each range, you can define which harmonic to use and how the conversion loss is
handled.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer<x>:HARMonic:HIGH:STATe
Harmonic Type ← Mixer Settings (Harmonics Configuration)
Defines if only even, only odd, or even and odd harmonics can be used for conversion.
Depending on this selection, the order of harmonic to be used for conversion changes
(see
on page 410). Which harmonics are supported depends on the
mixer type.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer<x>:HARMonic:TYPE
Harmonic Order ← Mixer Settings (Harmonics Configuration)
Defines which order of the harmonic of the LO frequencies is used to cover the fre-
quency range.
By default, the lowest order of the specified harmonic type is selected that allows con-
version of input signals in the whole band. If due to the LO frequency the conversion is
not possible using one harmonic, the band is split.
For the "USER" band, the order of harmonic is defined by the user. The order of har-
monic can be between 3 and 128, the lowest usable frequency being 17.132
GHz.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]MIXer<x>:HARMonic[:LOW]
[SENSe:]MIXer<x>:HARMonic:HIGH[:VALue]
Conversion Loss ← Mixer Settings (Harmonics Configuration)
Defines how the conversion loss is handled. The following methods are available:
"Average"
Defines the average conversion loss for the entire frequency range in
dB.
