CXA Instrument Boot Up Process

This section describes the N9000A Signal Analyzer boot up process from initial
AC power to a normal analyzer sweep. The boot process time from start to finish
will take ~3 minutes. This boot time will vary slightly depending on the analyzer
hardware configuration, installed options and the number of measurement
applications.
By default, the measurement applications will preload before the CXA spectrum
analyzer application is fully booted. The analyzer boot time can be shortened if
needed by turning off the preload process for applications that are not going to be
used. If this is done, the preload process will be bypassed during the application
boot up. If a certain measurement mode is selected that did not preload during the
original boot, that measurement application will preload at that time. When this
occurs the mode switching time will take longer. Once the application is loaded all
subsequent mode switches will be much faster.
If the user does not want the measurement applications to preload during the CXA
application boot process, select the ConfigureApplications.exe on the desktop as
shown in Figure 2-1. This will bring up a window that shows the various
applications and what is selected to preload. By default all applications are
checked and therefore, will preload when the CXA application is launched.
Uncheck any applications to bypass the preloading process, select Configure, and
then Close the Configure Applications window when finished.
