Front Panel Features
6. STIMULUS function block. The keys in this block allow you to control
the analyzer source's frequency, power, and other stimulus functions.
7. RESPONSE function block. The keys in this block allow you to control
the measurement and display functions of the active display channel.
8. ACTIVE CHANNEL keys. The analyzer has two independent primary
channels and two auxiliary channels. These keys allow you to select the
active channel. Any function you enter applies to the selected channel.
9. The ENTRY block. This block includes the knob, the step
keys, the number pad, and the backspace key. These allow you to enter
numerical data and control the markers.
You can use the numeric keypad to select digits, decimal points, and a
minus sign for numerical entries. You must also select a units terminator
to complete value inputs.
The backspace key has two independent functions: it modifies entries, and
it turns off the softkey menu so that marker information can be moved off
of the grids and into the softkey menu area. For more details, refer to the
“Making Measurements” chapter in the user’s guide.
10. INSTRUMENT STATE function block. These keys allow you to control
channel-independent system functions such as the following:
• copying, save/recall, and GPIB controller mode
• limit testing
• external source mode
• tuned receiver mode
• test sequence function
• harmonic measurements (Option 002)
• time domain transform (Option 010)
GPIB STATUS indicators are also included in this block.
11. key. This key returns the instrument to either a known factory
preset state, or a user preset state that can be defined. Refer to Chapter 7 ,
“Preset State and Memory Allocation” for a complete listing of the
instrument preset condition.
12. PROBE POWER connectors. These connector (fused inside the
instrument) supply power to an active probe for in-circuit measurements
of ac circuits.
13. R, A, and B connectors. These connectors allow you to apply input
signals when creating your own test setup. In addition, these connectors
allow you to use the HP/Agilent 85046A/B, HP/Agilent 85044A/B test sets
to simplify measurement setup.
14. RF OUT connector. This connects the RF output signal from the
analyzer to a test set or power splitter.
