NEW - IQCreator® Version 8.2 Released

January 17, 2011
IQCreator® is a Windows-based software application that enables a user to set up a modulation scheme and then create an ARB file for use in conjunction with either the 3410 Series or 3020 PXI Series Signal Generators. Graphical displays of the waveform FFT, vector and constellation diagrams, etc. can be viewed and exported for use in other Windows™ applications. The ARB file may be saved or downloaded into the ARB. User-defined configurations can also be saved. Consequently, it is possible to load previously saved setups to regenerate the ARB files quickly and easily. IQCreator® application software is supplied as standard with the 3410 and 3020 Series signal generators. The 3410 Series requires the option 005 ARB waveform generator to be fitted and the 3020 PXI Series requires option 100, Enable IQCreator.
