DOWN CONVERTED SIGNAL DISPLAY

Hello
 
i want to ask a question. that is when i aquire a signal from 5600 i Know that it is now centered at 15Mhz but when i display it on test panel window it shows me the same frequency as i have aquired.(e.g i have aquired a signal at 100MHZ using downconverted 5600 it is now at 15Mkz but display is same i.e 100MHZ). is there any software VI or something that make me look like as if it is at 100MHZ not at 10MHZ.or it has aquired it at 100MHZ actually.
 
 
Regards
Madd

Hi Madd,

I'm a little confused by the wording of your question, but I think you want a VI or method to display the frequency spectrum in the same way that the test panels do.

The RFSA driver keeps this correlation by default, so you don't need any special programming to display the 100 MHz capture at 100 MHz. The driver also installs a few examples to show how simple it is. Depending on your hardware (I only know you have a 5600, I don't know your digitizer), you will want to look at a different folder:

NI 5660 (5600 with a 5620):
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW <Version>\examples\instr\ni5660

NI 5661 (5600 with a 5142):
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW <Version>\examples\instr\niRFSA
