Special requirements for particular converter models
●
The electronic attenuator of an R&S ZC90E can only be controlled by an
R&S ZVA that is equipped with hardware option R&S ZVA-B8. The
R&S ZVT does not offer this option.
For a description of the corresponding connector, see Chapter 4.3.5,
"Attenuator control connector (R&S ZC90E only)" , on page 18. For
cabling and operational aspects, see the Getting Started of the prede-
cessor R&S
ZVA-Z90E. It can be downloaded from the manual page of
the R&S ZVA-Zxxx converter family ( https://www.rohde-schwarz.com/
manual/zvaz/ ).
●
The RPG ZC1100 requires an R&S ZVA40 or R&S ZVA67. Operation
with an R&S ZVT20 is not possible.
Firmware and Operating System Requirements
Support of the R&S ZCxxx converters requires firmware version 3.40 or higher to
be installed on the VNA. If the operating system of the VNA is Windows® XP,
make sure that it has been upgraded at least up to service pack 2. Otherwise
USB communication between VNA and converter is not possible. In case an
upgrade of the operating system is needed, please contact your local Rohde &
Schwarz service.
A.2.2 Measurement principle
The measurement involves the following steps:
1. Activation of the converter mode
2. Connection of the frequency converters
3. Calibration using a suitable waveguide calibration kit
4. Connection of the DUT and measurement
