Operation
Using an E4407B Spectrum Analyzer or 7405A EMC Analyzer
Operation
Frequency Tracking Calibration This procedure is used to align the frequency of the
preselector filter of the Agilent 11974 to the tuned frequency of the analyzer. This
procedure should be followed any time that the Agilent 11974 is connected to a different
analyzer. The calibration should be periodically checked.
1. Set the Agilent 11974 rear-panel switches “ESA/PSA/70907B” and “LEDS” to the ON
position, and the other two switches to the OFF position, in order for the Agilent 11974
to properly scale to the tune signal of the analyzer.
2. Configure the analyzer for a preselected external mixer by pressing the following keys:
Preset, Factory Preset (if present), Input/Output, Input Mixer (Ext), Mixer Config, Mixer Type
(Presel)
3. Set the desired band of operation. Press
Return, Ext Mix Band, A, Q, U, or V. (Note that
only A,Q,U, and V bands are available.)
4. Set the Presel Adjust to 0 MHz by pressing
AMPLITUDE, Presel Adjust, 0, MHz.
5. Set the analyzer to zero span by pressing
SPAN, Zero Span.
6. Set the analyzer center frequency by pressing
FREQUENCY, Center Freq, and enter the
corresponding value for the appropriate mixer. (Refer to Table 3-4.) On the rear panel of
the Agilent 11974, adjust the corresponding potentiometer until one or both of the green
LEDs are lit.
7. Change the analyzer center frequency to the value indicated in Table 3-5. and again
adjust the corresponding potentiometer on the rear panel of the 11974 until one or both
of the green LEDs are lit.
8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 until the green LEDs are lit at both frequencies without additional
adjustments.
