To specify a channel, you use five digits as shown in Table 5-5.
Table 5-5 Specifying E5252A Channels in Normal Config. Mode
Card Number: One digit: 1 to 4. E5250A slot number in which card is

Channel Number: Four digits: XXYY.
• XX: input port number (01 to 10).
• YY: output port number (01 to 12).
Channel Number assignment is shown in Figure 5-4.
NOTE For the following two cases, three ports share one input path. Do not specify two of
the input ports at same time.
• SMU5, HF1, and CV1 (Input Port No. 05, 07, and 09)
• SMU6, HF2, and CV2 (Input Port No. 06, 08, and 10)
For example, if you specify input port 05, then you cannot specify input ports 07 and
