a Typical performance of unit with 500 MHz Pentium III processor.
b Measured using a VEE 5.0 program running on a 600 MHz HP Kayak, National InstrumentsTM GPIB card.
Transferred complex S11 data , using "CALC:DATA?SDATA".
c Measured using a VEE 5.0 program running on a 600 MHz HP Kayak. Transferred complex S11 data,
using "CALC:DATA?SDATA". Speed dependent on LAN traffic, if connected to network.
d Measured using a VEE 5.0 program running inside PNA Series Analyzer. Transferred complex S11 data,
using "CALC:DATA?SDATA".
e Measured using a Visual Basic 6.0 program running inside PNA Series Analyzer. Transferred complex S11
data.
f Measured using a Visual Basic 6.0 program running on a 600 MHz HP Kayak. Transferred
complex S11 data. Speed dependent on LAN traffic, if connected to network.
g Used IArray Transfer.getComplex method for 32-bit floating point.
h Used meas.getData method for Variant data type.
