System requirements AnTune software can be installed on a PC that runs windows 2000,XP or newer. Recommend processor speed min 2 GHz as the software is calculation intensive but it will also run at reduced speed on slower processors. Minimum screen resolution 1280*1024. Modem Meditel Windows 7. GPIB, LAN or USB interface, fully GPIB compatible, for communication with a Vector Network Analyzer is a requirement for full use of the software.

AnTune can be used without VNA as a standalone impedance optimizer by importing/export s1p-files. In AnTune used VNA software instructions are by enduser editable common IEEE 488.2 commands allowing custom setup or adding not yet supported models of VNA. Most types of Keysight (Agilent, HP) and R&S VNA's are supported as well as VNA's from Copper Mountain Tech. If your specific model is missing, give us a mail. GPIB hardware interface from and are fully supported. Driver for theses interfaces from National Instruments must be installed if it not already is done.

Prologix GPIB to serial port interface is not, until further, supported. Internet connection is required to be able to install and run the software in trial mode. Alternatively exist USB software lock which not require Internet connection. USB lock is only sold together with a full year license.

Administrator rights is required to be able to install and run the software. Installation Download installation file (install.exe) and start installation. Kirmes Simulation Rafale. AnTune will be default installed in directory C: program files AnTune.

At first start of the software will a registration will be required. Download Home Sheep Home 2 V1.0 Full-theta. A license key will be sent by email, which fully locks up the software for a time limited period.

Installed version will just have basic functionality. Depending on file accesse rights in actual Windows version, will AnTune either automatic download latest version of the software or else must that be done manually by downloading latest AnTune.exe from the download section, In some cases can additional drivers and settings be needed, depending on what type of GPIB interface you have. If not already installed togeter with your existing hardware is NI-VISA drivers needed.

Latest NI-VISA driver for your hardware can be found at With LabVIEW and NI-VISA installed, you should be ready to go. If any problems, contact us. AnTune use The software is complex but most settings are self configuring and user settings reduced to a minimum. Measurement parameters are saved when software is shut down and retrieved at next startup which helps the user to concentrate on antenna design, not how to setup software. Setup procedure: 1. When AnTune is started, select number of markers and place at wished frequencies.
