NOTE If the ESA Spectrum Analyzer experiences a rapid “power down / power

up” sequence, the analyzer may not have fully powered down. If this
occurs, Agilent recommends that you power down the analyzer (using
the front-panel power switch) for approximately 10 seconds, then turn
the power back on. This will allow the hardware to turn on in the
correct state.

AMPLITUDE Y Scale

AMPLITUDE Y Scale

Activates the reference level function and accesses the amplitude menu
keys. Amplitude menu keys allow you to set functions that affect the
way data on the vertical axis is displayed or corrected.

Ref Level Allows the reference level to be changed. This function is activated

when
amplitude power or voltage represented by the top graticule on the
display. Changing the value of the reference level changes the absolute
amplitude level (in the selected amplitude units) of the top graticule
line. The reference level can be changed using the step keys, the knob,
or the numeric keypad. Pressing any digit (0 through 9) on the numeric
keypad brings up the terminator menu.

AMPLITUDE Y Scale is pressed. The reference level is the

Key Access:

Sets the input attenuation to manual or automatic and allows you to set
the attenuation level in 5 dB increments when
selected. The analyzer input attenuator, which is normally coupled to
the reference level control, reduces the power level of the analyzer input
signal at the input mixer. The attenuator is recoupled when

(Auto) is selected. Attenuation can be changed using the step keys, the

Attenuation

knob, or the numeric keypad. To select 0 dB, the numeric keypad must
be used (except for E4401B or E4411B.)

Key Access:

CAUTION To prevent damage to the input mixer, do not exceed a power level of

AMPLITUDE / Y Scale

+30 dBm at the input. To prevent signal compression, keep the power at
the input mixer below 0 dBm. With the attenuator set to Auto, a signal
at or below the reference level will result in a mixer level at or below
the Max Mixer Lvl.

Scale/Div Sets the logarithmic units per vertical graticule division on the display.

Scale/Div function is only available when the Scale Type key is set to

The

Log. Scale/Div values may range from 0.1 to 20 dB per division With

FM Demod (Option BAA) installed and

Adds an offset value to the displayed reference level. Reference-level
offsets are only entered by using the numeric keypad. Entering an
offset does not affect the trace or the attenuation value. Reference-level
offsets are used when gain or loss occurs between a device under test
and the analyzer input. Thus, the signal level measured by the analyzer
may be referred to as the level at the input of an external
amplitude-conversion device. When an amplitude offset is entered, its
value appears on the left side of the display under Offst (as opposed to
frequency offsets which appear at the bottom of the display). To

Pressing

Int Preamp (On) results in a correction being applied to

compensate for the gain of the preamp so that amplitude readings show
the value at the input connector. When the preamp is on, a PA
indication appears on the left side of the display. The preamp is
switched off in frequency bands above 3 GHz and the correction is not
applied. In this case, the PA indication will still appear even though the
preamp is not activated.

The preamp is specified to operate over a 1 MHz to 3 GHz range for the
E4402B, E4404B, E4405B and E4407B. The preamp range for the

a particular measurement.

When discussing detectors, it is important to understand the concept of
a trace “bucket.” For every trace point displayed, there is a finite time
during which the data for that point is collected. The analyzer has the
ability to look at all of the data collected during that time and present a
single point of trace data based on the detector mode. We call the
interval during which the data for that trace point is being collected,
the “bucket.” Thus a trace is more than a series of single points. It is
actually a series of trace “buckets.” The data may be sampled many
times within each bucket.

differences between the average of the log of power and the log of the

There are actually four types of averaging processes within a spectrum

are:

the bandwidth range is from 1 Hz to 5 MHz if you have both Options

additional 300 Hz, 200 Hz, and 100 Hz bandwidths.) As the resolution
bandwidth is decreased, the sweep time is modified to maintain
amplitude calibration. Resolution bandwidth is also related to span. As
span is decreased, the resolution bandwidth is decreased. As the

differences between the average of the log of power and the log of the

When discussing detectors, it is important to understand the concept of
a trace “bucket.” For every trace point displayed, there is a finite time
during which the data for that point is collected. The analyzer has the
ability to look at all of the data collected during that time and present a
single point of trace data based on the detector mode. We call the
interval during which the data for that trace point is being collected,
the “bucket.” Thus a trace is more than a series of single points. It is
actually a series of trace “buckets.” The data may be sampled many
times within each bucket.

• Sample - displays the instantaneous level of the signal at the center
of the bucket represented by each display point.

• Peak - displays the maximum of the signal within the bucket.

• Negative Peak - displays the minimum of the signal within the

Neither average nor sample detectors measure amplitudes of CW
signals as accurately as peak, because they may not find a spectral
component’s true peak. However, they both measure noise better
without the positive bias of peak detection.

Video Average detection computes the averaged trace
interval as appropriate to the Y-axis scale:

• Log-power average when in log scale.

• Voltage average when in linear scale.

• Frequency deviation when Demod View is enabled
for FM Demod.

Power Average (“root mean square” or RMS) detection
computes the RMS of the samples collected across the
trace interval. The number of samples included in the
RMS average for each trace interval depends on the
sweep time, the resolution bandwidth, and whether or
not option B7D is installed. With option B7D installed,
more samples are available as appropriate for wider
resolution bandwidths and faster sweep times. Slower
sweep times also increase the number of samples
averaged for each trace interval.

Limits Fixed Rel Allows you to choose fixed or relative limit lines. The fixed (Fixed) type

uses the current limit line as a reference with fixed frequency and
amplitude values. The relative (

Rel) setting causes the current limit

line value to be relative to the displayed center frequency and reference
level amplitude values. When limit lines are specified with time, rather
than frequency, the

Rel setting only affects the amplitude values. The

current amplitude values will be relative to the displayed reference
level amplitude, but the time values will always start at the left edge of
the graticule.

As an example, assume you have a frequency limit line. If the limit line
is specified as fixed, entering a limit line segment with a frequency
coordinate of 300 MHz displays the limit line segment at 300 MHz. If
the same limit line table is specified as relative, it is displayed relative
to the analyzer center frequency and reference level. If the center
frequency is at 1.0 GHz, a relative limit line segment with a frequency
coordinate of 300 MHz will display the limit line segment at 1.3 GHz. If
the amplitude component of the relative limit line segment is –10 dB,
then −10 dB is added to the reference level value to obtain the
