Agilent 8753ET/ES Supplemental Characteristics (continued)
Trace Functions
Display data
Display current measurement data, memory data,
or current measurement with measurement and
memory data simultaneously.
Trace math
Vector division or subtraction of current linear
measurement values and memory data.
Display annotations
Start/stop, center/span, or CW frequency, source
level, scale/div, reference level, marker data,
softkey functions, warning and caution messages,
trace identification, and pass/fail indication.
Autoscale
Automatically selects scale resolution and refer-
ence value to center the trace.
Electrical delay
Offset measured phase or group delay by a defined
amount of electrical delay, in seconds.
Frequency blanking
Blank out all frequency information on the
display. Requires an instrument preset to
re-enable frequency information on the display.
Title
Add custom titles (49 characters maximum) to
the display.
Adjust display
Customize the color and brightness of the data
traces, memory traces, reference lines, graticules,
text, and warning messages. Default colors can
be recalled along with one set of user-defined
display values.
Storage
Instrument state
Up to 31 instrument states can be stored internally
or recalled via the SAVE/RECALL menu. Instrument
states include all control settings, active limit lines,
active list frequency tables, memory trace data,
active calibration coefficients, and custom display
titles. Storage is in nonvolatile memory.
Test sequences
Six measurement sequences can be stored or
recalled via the sequencing menu. Sequences may
also be recalled from Preset menu. Sequence reg-
ister 6 is part of nonvolatile storage and is not
erased during a power cycle. If sequence 6 is titled
AUTO, it will be executed when power is turned on.

Disk drive
Data, instrument states, user graphics, data plots
and test sequences can be stored on internal floppy
disk in MS-DOS® or Agilent's standard LIF formats.
Data Hardcopy
Data plotting
Hardcopy plots are automatically produced with
HP-GL compatible digital plotters. The 8753ET/ES
provides Centronics, RS-232C, and GPIB interfaces.
Data listings
Printouts of instrument data are directly produced
with a printer such as the HP DeskJet or LaserJet.
Select black & white or color print. For a list of
compatible printers, consult our printer compati-
bility guide Web page at www.agilent.com/find/pcg
Configure plots
Configure plots completely from the network ana-
lyzer by defining pen color and line type for data,
text markers, graticules, and memory traces.
Functions
Plot trace(s), graticule(s), marker(s), or text includ-
ing operating and system parameters.
Quadrants
Plot entire display in one of four different quad-
rants of the plotter paper.
System Capabilities
Limit lines
Define test limit lines that appear on the display
for go/no go testing. Lines may be any combination
of horizontal, sloping lines, or discrete data points.
Limit-test TTL output available for external control
or indication.
External source mode
The receiver (input R) detects and phase-locks to
any externally generated CW signal. Receiver
inputs A and B will measure this same frequency
for comparison or tracking measurements.
Automatic: The input signal frequency is counted
and displayed.
Manual: Measures the input signal closest to the fre-
quency specified by the user (within +0.5 to +5 MHz).
Tuned receiver
Tunes the receiver for a synthesized CW input
signal at a precisely specified frequency. The time
bases of the external RF source or sources must
be tied to the external reference input (rear panel
BNC). The built-in RF source is not used.
