3 System Overview
This section comprises an overview of the instruments communicating with the R&S EX-
IQ-BOX and some basic operating modes. It also describes available hardware and soft-
ware components for operating the R&S
EX-IQ-BOX.
The R&S EX-IQ-BOX provides transmission of I/Q data between R&S instruments and
external devices (DUTs). In applications with standardized protocols, the R&S EX-IQ-
BOX operates bidirectional. Data can be sent and received at the same time. In the User
Defined mode only one data direction is possible at the same time.
In the following configurations, signal transmission is shown by means of an R&S instru-
ment operating as transmitter to the DUT via the R&S
EX-IQ-BOX. Vice versa, the
R&S EX-IQ-BOX works as a receiver, while it receives a test signal from a DUT and
transfers it to an R&S instrument for analyzing. For further configuration examples refer
to
​
chapter 5, "Application Examples" , on page 47.
An overview of instruments working with the R&S EX-IQ-BOX is given in
​
chapter 3.2.5,
"R&S Instruments Working with the R&S EX-IQ-BOX" , on page 25. For the available
options and their respective part numbers refer to
​
chapter 3.2.2, "Options" ,

3.1 Basic Operating Modes
This chapter provides a short overview of the various operating modes to control the
R&S
EX-IQ-BOX, including waveform memory and recording:
●
R&S DigIConf controlling the R&S EX-IQ-BOX
●
R&S Instruments controlling the R&S EX-IQ-BOX
●
Remote control of R&S DigIConf
●
Waveform Memory, Multi Waveform Playback and Recording Memory
3.1.1 R&S DigIConf Controlling the R&S EX-IQ-BOX
The previous model R&S EX-IQ-BOX 1409.5502.02 provides only User Defined proto-
cols.
Standardized protocols, Waveform Memory, Multi Waveform Playback and Recording
Memory require the
R&S EX-IQ-BOX 1409.5505K04 and the configuration software R&S
DigIConf.
