U3042AE12 System Setup with N5242A
N5242A RF Interface Cable Connections
Figure 29 on page 39 illustrates the setup configuration of the U3042AE12 Multiport Test
Set and how it should be configured to the PNA-X. The cables have been supplied with
Option 042.
1. Connect the RF interconnect cables from the PNA-X to the Test Set in the order listed.
As you are connecting each cable, torque to 8 in-lb. The longer, straight end of each
cable is connected to the test set. Refer to Table 11 and Figure 29 on page 39.
CAUTION Over torque will cause damage to the test set and may cause connectors to
spin or become loose.
