 How to Use Waveform Patterns

The following operations are required to output MX371054A Interference Waveform Pattern for LTE Receiver Test (hereafter “this waveform pattern”) from the MG3710A/MG3710E:

•  Transferring this waveform pattern to internal hard disk
• Loading waveform patterns from the hard disk to the waveform memory
• Selecting a waveform pattern to be output from the MG3710A/MG3710E

This chapter explains the details of these operations.

2. Installing waveform license … 2-2
3. Transferring waveform pattern to internal hard disk ….. 2-3
4. Loading to waveform memory …. 2-4
5. Selecting waveform pattern ….. 2-5
6. Outputting waveform pattern again … 2-6

How to Use Waveform Patterns

Preparing Waveform Pattern
This section describes how to download a created waveform pattern to the hard disk of the MG3710A/MG3710E and output the pattern.

•  Installing waveform license
  To load the waveform pattern to the memory, the license file corresponding to each pattern must be installed. Refer to the following for installation of the license file. B MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual 9.4.4 “Install”, “Adding/deleting waveform licenses: Waveform Licenses”

•  Transferring waveform pattern to internal hard disk

• There are two ways of transferring the waveform pattern created with this waveform pattern to the internal hard disk:

•  LAN

•  External device such as USB flash drive

• Transferring from PC to MG3710A/MG3710E via LAN

• Two I producer™ tools can be used to transfer a waveform pattern to the MG3710A/MG3710E via a LAN.

• Transfer & Setting Wizard Start this wizard by clicking the Transfer & Setting Wizard button of I producer™ or by selecting Simulation & Utility tab → Transfer & Setting Wizard from the I producer™ after creating a waveform pattern. For details, refer to 4.7 “File Transfer and Loading to Memory Using Transfer & Setting Wizard” in the MG3710A/MG3710E I producer™. Transferring a waveform pattern to the internal hard disk of the MG3710A/MG3710E, loading the waveform from the hard disk to the waveform memory, and then outputting the waveform pattern can be done using this wizard.

• Transfer & Setting Panel This function is loaded by selecting Transfer & Setting Panel in the Simulation & Utility tab of the I producer™. For details, refer to 5.2 “Transferring Waveform Pattern” in the MG3710A/MG3710E I producer™.

• Specify the folder that contains the waveform pattern to transfer to the MG3710A/MG3710E in the PC-side tree of Transfer & Setting Panel.

• Transferring via external device such as USB flash drive For how to transfer a waveform pattern to the internal hard disk of the MG3710A/MG3710E, refer to 7.3.6 “Copying external waveform pattern: Copy” in the MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual

How to Use Waveform Patterns

Selecting waveform pattern

• To output a modulated signal using this waveform pattern, it is necessary to load the waveform pattern that was transferred to the internal hard disk of the MG3710A/MG3710E (described in 2.1.2 “Transferring waveform pattern to internal hard disk”) to the waveform memory. A waveform pattern can be loaded into the waveform memory in the following two ways.
• Configuring using the MG3710A/MG3710E
• A waveform pattern can be loaded into the waveform memory by using the instruction panel of the MG3710A/MG3710E or by using a remote command.
• For operation using the front panel, refer below:
• MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual 7.3.4 “Loading waveform pattern: Load” For operation using remote commands, refer below:
• MG3710A/MG3710E Operation Manual 7.3.4 “Loading waveform pattern: Load”

Using Transfer & Setting Panel of I producer™
