Basic Digital Operation (Option 651/652/654)Understanding Option 012 (LO In/Out for Phase Coherency) with Multiple Baseband Generator SynchronizationFigure 8-31 3x3 and 4x4 MIMO (LO In/Out for Phase Coherency) Equipment SetupNote:A SMA flexible cable is recommended for the input to the 4–way splitter connections to the LO IN and LO OUT of the MXGs withOption 012 (see page 225).To optimize the phase coherence, the same length SMA flexible cable is recommended for the output of the 4–way splitterconnections to the LO IN of the MXGs with Option 012 (see page 225).To minimize synchronization delay, the Agilent BNC cable 10502A is the recommended cable for the rear panel daisy chain228 Agilent N5161A/62A/81A/82A/83A MXG Signal Generators User’s Guide
Basic Digital Operation (Option 651/652/654)Waveform Licensing for Firmware Version ≥ A.01.50Waveform Licensing for Firmware Version ≥ A.01.50Waveform licensing enables you to license waveforms that you generate and download from anySignal Studio application for unlimited playback in a signal generator. Each licensing option (221- 229)allows you to permanently license up to five waveforms or (250- 259) allows you to permanentlylicense up to 50 waveforms of your choice (i.e. Waveform Option 22x or Option 25x are perpetualfixed waveform licenses).Waveforms licensed with Options 221- 229 or Options 250- 259 cannot be exchanged for differentwaveforms. Once a waveform is licensed, that license is permanent and cannot be revoked orreplaced. Option 22x and 25x waveform licenses are signal generator specific (i.e. signal generator serialnumber specific). If a licensed Option 22x or Option 25x waveform file is transferred to another signalgenerator, the file must be licensed by a separate Option 22x or Option 25x that is in the other signalgenerator before it can be played.To redeem Option 22x or Option 25x, refer to the N5182A–2xx Entitlement Certificate that comeswith the N5182A–2xx order. For more information on extracting and downloading waveform files,refer to the Programming Guide.Understanding Waveform LicensingUse any N76xxB Signal Studio software to build and download waveforms to the signal generator.Each Option 22x provides 5 available slots and Option 25x license provides 50 available slots, whereyou can add and play waveforms for a trial period of 48 hours per slot. During this time, you canreplace the waveform any number of times until you are satisfied with it. After the trial periodexpires, the waveform in the slot is no longer playable until the slot is locked for permanentplayback; however, you can replace the waveform in the slot with another waveform of your choicebefore locking the slot.To license additional waveforms that exceed the number permitted by an Option 22x or Option 25x,you must purchase another Option 22x or Option 25x that you do not already own. For example, ifyou already own Option 250, purchase Option 251 to add an additional 50 slots. Adding all options,250- 259, provides a maximum of 500 slots. Adding all options, 221- 229, provides a maximum of 45slots. (Repurchasing the same option for the same signal generator, gives you no additional Waveformlicenses.)Installing an Option N5182-22x or Option N5182A–25xLoad a Waveform License, Option N5182- 22x or Option N5182A–25x, into the signal generator usingLicense Manager or a USB media. For more information on loading the Waveform License, refer tothe N5182A–2xx Entitlement Certificate included with your order.Licensing a Signal Generator WaveformCreate and download a waveform into the signal generator using any of the N76xxB Signal Studiosoftware. Refer to your Signal Studio software help if you need assistance using the application.Refer to page 234 for steps in adding the waveform to a license slot for a 48- hour trial period.During the trial period, the waveform can be played and replaced any number of times. When thetrial time expires, the slot can no longer be used for playback until the slot is locked for permanentplayback capability.Agilent N5161A/62A/81A/82A/83A MXG Signal Generators User’s Guide 229
