Presetting the Spectrum Analyzer
Preset function provides a known instrument status for 
making measurements. There are two types of presets, 
factory and user:
Factory Preset When this preset type is selected, it restores the analyzer to 
its factory- defined state. A set of known instrument 
parameter settings defined by the factory. Refer to “Factory 
Preset State” on page 111 for details.
User Preset Restores the analyzer to a user- defined state. A set of user 
defined instrument parameter settings saved for assisting the 
user in quickly returning to known a instrument 
measurement setup.
Press   > Pwr on/Preset > Preset Type to select the preset 
type.
When  Preset Type  is set to Factory, pressing   > Preset 
triggers a factory preset condition. The instrument will 
immediately return to the factory default instrument 
parameter setting.
When  Preset Type  is set to User, pressing   > Preset 
displays both User Preset and Factory Preset softkeys. The user 
may then select the preset desired from the softkey menu 
selections.
Setting up a User Preset
To quickly return to instrument settings that are user 
defined, perform the following steps to save the instrument 
state as the user- defined preset:
1 Set the instrument parameters to the values and settings 
necessary for the user preset state. This would include the 
frequency, span, amplitude, BW, and measurement type and 
any other setup details desired.
2 Press   > Pwr on/Preset  > Save User Preset, to save the 
current instrument settings as the ‘user preset’ state. The 
user preset will not affect the default factory preset settings. 
User preset settings can be changed and saved at any time.
