User FIR Filter Coefficient File Download Problems
Data Requirement Reminders
To avoid user FIR filter coefficient data download problems, the following conditions must
be met:
1. Data must be in ASCII format.
2. Downloads must be in list format.
3. Filters containing more symbols than the hardware allows (32 for Option UN8 and 24
for Option UND) will not be selectable for that configuration.
ARB Waveform Data Download Problems
Data Requirement Reminders
To avoid I/Q waveform data download problems, the following six conditions must be met:
1. Data must be in unsigned, offset (binary) format.
2. Data must be in 2-byte integers, ordered MSB first to LSB last.
Table 3-6 User FIR File Download Trouble - Symptoms and Causes
Symptom Possible Cause
ERROR -321, Out of memory
There is not enough space in the memory catalog for the FIR
coefficient file being downloaded.
To solve the problem, either reduce the file size of the FIR file or
delete unnecessary files from the memory catalog.
ERROR -223, Too much data
User FIR filter has too many symbols.
Option UN8 cannot use a filter that has more than 32 symbols
(24 symbols maximum for Option UND). You may have specified
an incorrect oversample ratio in the filter table editor.
Table 3-7 I/Q Waveform Data Download Trouble - Symptoms and Causes
Symptom Possible Cause
ERROR 224, Text file busy.
Attempting to download a waveform that has the same name as the
waveform currently being played by the signal generator.
To solve the problem, either change the name of the waveform being
downloaded or turn off the ARB.
ERROR -321, Out of memory.
There is not enough space in the ARB memory for the waveform file being
downloaded.
To solve the problem, either reduce the file size of the waveform file or
delete unnecessary files from ARB memory.
