After running `artiq_sinara_tester`:
|
||||
|
||||
1. (Recommended) Attach a 20 dB attenuator (any that support the frequency range) to the TinySA Ultra "RF" port.
|
||||
2. Connect the TinySA Ultra's "RF" port (with attenuator) to the Mirny channel 0 output SMA port.
|
||||
3. Turn on the TinySA Ultra and set it to "Spectrum Analyzer" mode.
|
||||
4. Set the frequency range to cover the expected output (e.g., 800 MHz to 2 GHz).
|
||||
5. If the marker is not on the peak, click "Marker"->"Search Marker"->"Peak Search" to find the peak signal.

6. Repeat 2-5 for other channels

Alternatively, you can use GQRX with HackRF:
|

|
||||
1. Install gqrx `nix-shell -p gqrx`
|
||||
2. Connect HackRF One via USB cable only
|

3. Run gqrx and choose `HackRF HackRF One...`

### With Almazny (ARTIQ 8+)

RF ON, attenuators are tested. Press ENTER when done.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After running `artiq_sinara_tester` with Almazny installed, use TinySA Ultra to check the frequencies, similar to the [Without Almazny](#Without-Almazny) section:
|
||||
|
||||
1. (Recommended) Attach a 20 dB attenuator ([BW-S20W5+](https://www.minicircuits.com/WebStore/dashboard.html?model=BW-S20W5%2B)) to the TinySA Ultra "RF" port.
|
||||
2. Connect the TinySA Ultra's "RF" port (with attenuator) to the Almazny channel 0 output SMA port.
|
||||
3. Turn on the TinySA Ultra and set it to "Spectrum Analyzer" mode.
|
||||
4. Set the frequency range to cover the expected output (e.g., 6.8 GHz to 7.5 GHz).
|
||||
5. If the marker is not on the peak, click "Marker"->"Search Marker"->"Peak Search" to find the peak signal.
|
||||
6. Repeat 2-5 for other channels
|
||||
|
||||
Expected output: The output amplitude will sweep due to attenuator testing, but the frequencies should remain stable.
|
||||

||||

||||

||||
|
||||
### With Almazny (ARTIQ 7)
|
||||
|
||||
At first, `artiq_sinara_tester` will prompt you for testing Mirnies as the would be without Almazny.
