Step 3. To change the enable input ports (for ARRAY display mode, optional)
INPUT 1 to INPUT 4 are always enabled. INPUT 5 to INPUT 10 are selectable. You
can select one from INPUT 5, 7, and 9 and you can also select one from INPUT 6, 8,
and 10.
To change the enable input port, move the pointer on the field of the input port that
you are going to enable, then select the ENABLE PORT softkey. This softkey is not
available for the enabled input port, the bias port, and the input ports that are
internally connected to the bias port.
For example, if you select the ENABLE PORT softkey on INPUT 7, then INPUT 5
and INPUT 9 are disabled, and INPUT 7 is enabled. The information for the
disabled ports is cleared.
In the figure on page 8-37, INPUT 1 to INPUT 5 and INPUT 8 are enabled. And
INPUT 6, 7, 9, and 10 are disabled.
Step 4. To change the enable input ports (for LIST display mode, optional)
INPUT 1 to INPUT 4 are always enabled. INPUT 5 to INPUT 10 are selectable. You
can select one from INPUT 5, 7, and 9 and you can also select one from INPUT 6, 8,
and 10.
To change the enable input port, move the pointer to the field of the INPUT 5 or
INPUT 6 (SMU5 or SMU6 in the following figure). Then select the softkey that
specifies the input port you want to enabled. For the bias port, only the softkey that
specifies the bias port is available.
The softkeys have the label you defined in the E5250A INPUT CONNECTION
fields on the CHANNELS: E5250A PROPERTIES screen.
