GSP-9300 User Manual Setting the Display Mode The GSP-9300 has three different display modes Description for viewing: spectrum, spectrograph and topographic. It is also possible to view the spectrum with the spectrographic or topographic views using a split screen. Default display mode.
Page 113 BASIC OPERATION Example: Spectrogram The Spectrogram view shows signals in both the frequency and time domain. The X-axis represents frequency, the Y-axis represents time and the color of each point represents the amplitude at a particular frequency & time (Red = high dark blue = low). Each new trace is shown at the bottom of the display and older traces are pushed up toward the top of the display until they are removed.
Page 114 GSP-9300 User Manual Topographic The topographic view shows the frequency of events. The topographic view is useful for observing smaller signals that have been overpowered by stronger signals or to easily observe intermittent events. Color is used to represent the frequency of an event. Red represents a high frequency of occurrence, while blue represents events that occur rarely.

Page 201: P1Db Normalization
ADVANCED OPERATION P1dB Normalization The normalize function is used to compensate Description for any loss from a long cable that may cause inaccurate measurements. This function relies on the DUT being directly connected to either the TG or the RF input. The position of the long cable in relation to the DUT (input or output) will affect the P1dB measurement.
Page 202 GSP-9300 User Manual Example 1 Location = Prev Normalized DUT response DUT response with line loss before DUT input Input power (dBm) Example 2 Location = Post Normalized DUT response DUT response with line loss after DUT output Input power (dBm)
Page 203 ADVANCED OPERATION 2. Press > More[F7]>P1dB[F4] Measure >Normalize[F3]. 3. Press Execute Norm[F3]. This will normalize the cable loss. The cable loss will be shown in the Execute Norm icon. 4. Next connect the DUT either directly to the TG or directly to the RF input. The location of the DUT will determine whether the cable loss is normalized before or after the DUT.

GSP-9300 User Manual EMC Pre-Compliance Testing The GSP-9300 EMC Pretest function is a comprehensive suite for performing, debugging or estimating radiated or conducted emissions as well as the ability to troubleshoot immunity tests. The EMC Prestest function is divided into 5 main functions: EMI Test, EMI-M Probe, EMI-E Probe, Voltage Probe and EMS Test.
Page 205: Emi Test
ADVANCED OPERATION EMI Test The EMI Test function is used to greatly Description simplify the process of EMI pretesting for radiated or conductive emissions testing. You only need to specify the testing frequency, standard used and any corrective factors. In addition, the peak table function can be used and the results can be shown logarithmically.
Page 206 GSP-9300 User Manual The following is a basic overview of radiated Radiated tests. There are a number of different standards, Emissions Tests each that have specific test configurations and methods. Most radiated tests are performed in an anechoic chamber or in an open area, where...
Page 207 ADVANCED OPERATION For conducted emissions testing, a LISN (line Conducted Emissions impedance stabilization network) is required. A LISN is used for two main reasons. Firstly, it is used to filter any noise from the mains power that is fed to the DUT. Secondly, it filters RF noise from the DUT that would normally be coupled to the mains power and passes it to the spectrum analyzer.
