B.35 Home-built microwave attenuator
Module name: hjs_attenuator
Description: Home-built computer controlled microwave
attenuator from the
group of H.-J. Steinhoff at the University of Osnabrueck. Works with a stepper motor
to mechanically adjust a microwave attenuator. Requires a default
calibration table file that gets read in when the module is loaded.
The name of the file can be set in the configuration file for the
module. During the PREPARATIONS
section the function
mw_attenuator_initial_attenuation()
must be
called to tell the module about the initial attenuation setting.
Controlled via: Serial port
Status: Tested
Supported functions:
- `mw_attenuator_name()'
- `mw_attenuator_load_calibration()'
- `mw_attenuator_initial_attenuation()'
- `mw_attenuator_attenuation()'
