a. Typical performance.
b.

Measured using a VEE 5.0 program running on a 600 MHz HP Kayak, National Instruments

TM

GPIB card. Transferred complex S

11

data, using "CALC:DATA? SDATA".

c.

Measured using a VEE 5.0 program running on a 600 MHz HP Kayak. Transferred complex S

11

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 S

11

data, using "CALC:DATA? SDATA".

e.

Measured using a Visual Basic 6.0 program running inside PNA Series analyzer. Transferred complex S

11

data.

f.

Measured using a Visual Basic 6.0 program running on a 600 MHz HP Kayak. Transferred complex S

11

data. Speed dependent on LAN traffic, if connected

to network.

g.

Used Iarray transfer (getComplex) for 32-bit floating point.

h.

Used meas.GetData for Variant type.
