Setting Receive Parameters
You can set receive parameters two ways. The first way is to set the
parameters individually: display the RECEIVE menu and set each
parameter manually on the RECEIVE SETTINGS page. The second
way is to couple the receive settings to the transmit settings. To do
this, use the Tx/Rx Setup line on the TRANSMIT SETTINGS page.
(The Tx/Rx Setup line appears on both the TRANSMIT SETTINGS
page and the RECEIVE SETTINGS page. To couple transmit
settings to the receive settings, you would use the Tx/Rx Setup line
on the RECEIVE SETTINGS page.)
To couple the receive settings to the transmit settings:
Press Menu
Button Select Menu

Tx/Rx Setup Coupled
As soon as you select Coupled, the icon in the status area changes to
indicate the Tx/Rx Setup are coupled.
If the operator couples from the TRANSMIT SETTINGS menu, the
TX settings copy to the Receive side of the test unit. If the operator
couples from the RECEIVE SETTINGS menu, the RX settings copy
to the Transmit side of the test unit.
