IviDownconverterBase Behavior Model
The following state diagram shows the basic operation of the IviDownconverterBase capability group:
The device is always operating, assuming power is applied, with an IF signal appearing at the output in response to an RF signal applied to the input. This specification defines a transient Settling state to account for the fact that the IF output signal may need to settle to a stable state after some operational parameters have been changed. Thus, in order to perform more accurate measurements, wait for a certain amount of time after changing some parameters to allow the signal to settle. A number of factors might require settling time, such as the following properties:
