# Frequency Settings

Frequency Settings define the frequency samples used by frequency-domain monitors such as Field Monitor, Flux Monitor, and Directivity Monitor.

# Range

Use Range mode to create an evenly spaced list of frequency points between a minimum and maximum value.

frequency unit: Unit used for frequency range values and generated frequency samples.

  • Options: Hz, kHz, MHz, GHz, THz

set range from global frequency: Toggle whether the monitor uses the Global Settings frequency range.

  • Options:
    • True: Use the global frequency range. The frequency range fields are disabled and show the global values.
    • False: Disable global frequency range linking and enter a monitor-specific frequency range.

frequency range: Minimum and maximum frequency values.

  • Unit: selected frequency unit

number of points: Number of generated frequency points.

  • Type: integer
  • Constraint: greater than 0

type: Spacing mode used to generate frequency points.

  • Options:
    • Linear: Sample the frequency range with evenly spaced frequency points.
    • Log: Sample the frequency range with logarithmically spaced frequency points.

frequency list: Preview of the generated frequency samples.

# Custom

Use Custom mode to provide an explicit list of frequency points.

frequency unit: Unit used for entered and parsed frequency samples.

  • Options: Hz, kHz, MHz, GHz, THz

input list: User-defined frequency values.

  • Type: list of numbers or variables separated by commas
  • Unit: selected frequency unit
  • Required field

frequency list: Preview of the parsed frequency samples.
