presents the store sequence to disk menu with a list of
sequences that can be stored.
is used to set the frequency of the LO source to sweep.
provides access to a series of menus which are used to
define and control all stimulus functions other than start,
stop, center, and span. Operating parameters such as
power, sweeptime, trigger condition, and number of points
are accessible through this hardkey.
toggles between automatic and manual sweep time.
presents the sweep type menu, where one of the available
types of stimulus sweep can be selected.
reformats a reflection measurement into its equivalent
SWR (standing wave ratio) value. SWR is equivalent to
(1+ρ)/(1−ρ), where ρ is the magnitude of the reflection
coefficient. Note that the results are valid only for
reflection measurements. If the SWR format is used for
measurements of S
21
or S
12
, the results are not valid.
presents the system menu. It allows to set the instrument
mode and to access the configure, limit and service menus.
is the mode used when peripheral devices are to be used
and there is no external controller. In this mode, the
analyzer can directly control peripherals (plotter, printer,
disk drive, or power meter). System controller mode must
be set in order for the analyzer to access peripherals from
the front panel to plot, print, store on disk, or perform
power meter functions, if there is no other controller on
the bus.
The system controller mode can be used without
knowledge of GPIB programming. However, the GPIB
address must be entered for each peripheral device.
This mode can only be selected manually from the
analyzer's front panel, and can be used only if no active
computer controller is connected to the system through
GPIB. If you try to set system controller mode when
another controller is present, the message ANOTHER
SYSTEM CONTROLLER ON GPIB is displayed. Do not
attempt to use this mode for programming.
Each data point is measured during the initial sweep and
the correction data is placed in the power meter correction
table. This provides data usable in the
mode.
