1
-A softkey's function changes as different
menus are displayed. Its current function is
determined by the video label to its left, on the
analyzer's screen.
2
-The analyzer's screen is divided into two
main areas. The menu area, a narrow column
at the screen's right edge, displays softkey
labels. The data area, the remaining portion of
the screen, displays traces and other data.
3
-The POWER switch turns the analyzer on
and off. If you have an 89441A, you must turn
on the power switches on both the top and
bottom box.
4
-Use a 3.5 inch flexible disk (DS,HD) in this
disk drive to save your work.
5
-The KEYBOARD connector allows you to
attach an optional keyboard to the analyzer.
The keyboard is most useful for writing and
editing Agilent Instrument BASIC programs.
6
- The SOURCE connector routes the
analyzer's source output to your DUT. If you
have an 89441A, the Source output from the IF
section (top box) is connected to the RF
section (bottom box). If the RF section has
option AY8 (internal RF source), the SOURCE
output connector on the RFsection is a type-N ;
otherwise it is a BNC.
7
-The EXT TRIGGER connector lets you
provide an external trigger for the analyzer.
8
-The PROBE POWER connectors provides
power for various Agilent active probes.
9
-The INPUT connector routes your test signal
or DUT output to the analyzer's receiver. If
you have an 89441A, the INPUT on the RF
section (bottom box) is connected to the
CHANNEL 1 input on the IF section (top box).
10
-Use the DISPLAY hardkeys and their
menus to select and manipulate trace data and
to select display options for that data.
11
-Use the SYSTEM hardkeys and their
menus to control various system functions
(online help, plotting, presetting, and so on).
12
-Use the MEASUREMENT hardkeys and
their menus to control the analyzer's receiver
and source, and to specify other measurement
parameters.
13
-The REMOTE OPERATION hardkey and
LED indicators allow you to set up and monitor
the activity of remote devices.
14
-Use the MARKER hardkeys and their
menus to control marker positioning and
marker functions.
15
-The knob's primary purpose is to move a
marker along the trace. But you can also use it
to change values during numeric entry, move a
cursor during text entry, or select a hypertext
link in help topics
16
-Use the Marker/Entry key to determine the
knob's function. With the Marker indicator
illuminated the knob moves a marker along the
trace. With the Entry indicator illuminated the
knob changes numeric entry values.
17
-Use the ENTRY hardkeys to change the
value of numeric parameters or to enter
numeric characters in text strings.
18
-The optional CHANNEL 2 input connector
routes your test signal or DUT output to the
analyzer's receiver. For ease of upgrading, the
CHANNEL 2 BNC connector is installed even if
option AY7 (second input channel) is not
installed.
