 2. Configure the hardware according to the hardware set-up instructions given in the Hardware Setup section above. Set the frequency of the DAC clock signal generator to 1400MHz, and the output level to 6dBm. The spectrum analyzer can be configured with Center Frequency = 2050 MHz, Span = 200 MHz, and Resolution Bandwidth of 30 kHz. Choose Input Attenuation to be 24dB. This can be adjusted later if indications are that the analyzer is causing degradations. \\ \\ 2.
