N9061A Application Description
N9061A Application Description
The N9061A application is the remote language compatibility suite for the Agilent Technologies
X-Series of signal analyzers. It allows the analyzers to be controlled using many of the remote
programming commands from the following analyzers:
• 8560 E/EC Series Portable Spectrum Analyzers, comp ris i ng :
— 8560E
— 8560EC
— 8561E
— 8561EC
— 8562E
— 8562EC
— 8563E
— 8563EC
— 8564E
— 8564EC
— 8565E
— 8565EC
• 8566A/B
• 8568A/B
NOTE The 8566A/B and the 8568A/B are not considered part of the 8560 series of
analyzers.
The X-Series analyzer with the N9061A application installed is designed to replace these analyzers in
many automated systems with minimal or no modification to the currently used measurement software.
There are two options for N9061A. One is N9061A-1FP, 8566A/B and 8568A/B remote language
compatibility, the other is N9061A-2FP, 8560 Series remote language compatibility.

Signal Analyzers with N9061A
When you purchase your X-Series signal analyzer with the Remote Language Compatibility Suite
(N9061A), this manual - the Remote Language Compatibility Guide (N9020-90119) is included on the
documentation CD and is installed on the analyzer in the online help.
For information on PXA series analyzers and other related documentation, refer to the PX A web site at
http://www.agilent.com/find/pxa.
For information on MXA series analyzers and other related documentation, refer to the MXA web site at

For information on EXA series analyzers and other related documentation, refer to the EXA web site at
http://www.agilent.com/find/exa/.
This Remote Language Compatibility Guide is not designed to be a comprehensive gui de to all legacy
commands. It gives brief descriptions of the suppor ted commands, and highl ights important functional or
behavioral differences that you should be aware of when transferring your existing code to your X-Series
analyzer. For a fuller description of these commands, refer to the manuals supplied with your original
analyzer.

N9061A General Rules and Limitations
N9061A General Rules and Limitations
The N9061A application has been designed to emulate as closely as possible the operation of the
specified spectrum analyzers. It is not, however, intended as an absolute direct replacement for these
analyzers.
Remote Control
The N9061A application in X-Series signal analyzers supports remote operation through the GPIB
interface. It does not support working over LAN, USB or Telnet.
Units
The N9061A application supports all units used in legacy products. The allowed units are HZ, KHZ,
MHZ, GHZ, KZ, MZ, GZ, DBM, DBMV, DBUV, MV, UV, V, MW, UW, W, DB, DM, MS, US, SC,
and S (case insensitive in 8566/68). A command terminator such as ";" also acts as a unit terminator.
Numeric Ranges
Numeric ranges are limited to that of the X-Series unless otherwise stated, although commands such as
FS or IP that go to a default range will use the range of the legacy instrumentation.
Returning Data
The X-Series and legacy instruments have a different approach when returning data to the controller.
The X-Series and 8560-series analyzers operate a FIFO buffer for command return values. If a command
returns a value that the controller does not read, the returned data is stored until such a time that the
controller requires the value. The 8566, 8568, and 8590-series legacy analyzers only store one value at a
time. Any value stored is overwritten each time a command returns a value. The N9071A application
handles this difference appropriately only within a single command string.
In the case of query string, it returns the query result for the last command in the string. For example, if
"CF?MA?FA?" is sent, the result of FA? will be returned. However, this rule does not work if the query
is located at both sides of the "TS" command. When the command string "MA;TS;CF?" is sent, the result
of CF? will be returned in the next query.
AC/DC Coupling
The 44 GHz and 50 GHz X-Series an alyzers only h ave DC coupling. The X-Series analyzers with a 26.5
GHz frequency range and lower, default to AC coupling on preset. The N9061A application will ensure
that DC coupling is the default when the selected instrument is HP8566A, HP8566B, HP8563, HP8564,
or HP8565.
When AC coupled, the 8560E/61E/62E have a 100 kHz low frequency limit, while the X-Series
analyzers has a 10 MHz limit.
For HP8568A/B compatibility and consistency, the I1 and I2 commands have been supported. These
select AC or DC coupling at the RF input. Note tht the HP8568A/B has two RF input ports in
comparison with the X-Series, which only has one.

N9061A General Rules and Limitations
Markers
The N9071A application emulates the behavior of legacy products. If someone uses a marker state which
is not available in the legacy instrument, further marker behavior is undefined until instrument preset.
On systems that supported MKACT, there are 4 completely different marker pairs, each with its own
information. The N9061A will store the currently active value of MKACT. If MKACT is 2 then it will
use Markers 3 and 4 instead of 1 and 2.
Parsing
For 8566B and 8568B, the N9061A will remember the active function and supports UP, DN, and OA, all
of which change the active function. It also supports '?', which does not change the active function.
One difference between N9061A and 8566/68 is that the 8566/68 parses a command for example CF
10.3GZ, immediately when it recognizes a complete command, in this example after the GZ. However
the N9061A parses at the end of a line when it sees the line termination sequence.
Couplings
To provide the most optimized use of the X-Series analyzers, the N9061A application uses the auto
coupling features of the X-Series analyzers and does not attempt to mimic the exact behavior of coupling
in the legacy analyzers. To eliminate the possibilities of "Meas Uncal" errors between auto and manual
values, values will default to the X-Series auto settings where applicable (for example resolution
bandwidth). There are several exceptions below.
To prevent timeout errors in the legacy code, the resolution bandwidth minimum matches the minimum
in the legacy analyzer. Resolution bandwidth steps and resolution, however, will be X-Series values.
The video bandwidth will couple to the resolution bandwidth according to the V ideo bandwidth coupling
offset value, specified by the VBO or VBR command. The X-Series analyzers sets the video bandwidth
according to the VBO or VBR setting, but uses the X-Series analyzers available bandwidths to prevent
'Meas Uncal' errors.
Predefined Functions
In the 8566/8568/8560 Series analyzers, a “predefined function” is an analyzer command that returns a
number that can be operated on by other analyzer commands. “Predefined variables” follow the same
idea, except the value to be passed as a parameter to the next command is stored in a variable.
The N9061A application does not support this type of behavior, so any commands that originally acted
as predefined functions or variables, or that allowed predefined functions or variables as arguments in
the 8566/8568/8560 Series no longer do so.
User-defined Functions
No user-defined functions, traces, or variables (FUNCDEF, TRDEF or VARDEF) can be used as
arguments or commands in programs controlling any analyzer running the N9061A application. In
addition, the behavior of certain commands that rely on the “active functions” (UP, DN, etc.) may be
slightly different.

N9061A General Rules and Limitations
Supported Commands
Only a subset of the 8566/8568/8560 Series commands is supported in this application (through a GPIB
interface). The list of supported commands was determined by feedback from our customers combined
with technical considerations and constraints.
EP is the enable parameter in the 8560 series that, when used as a secondary keyword after a command,
transfers control and allows front panel operator entry. This command is supported in the N9061A
application for the same active functions as the 8560 series, but is not displayed in any of the format
diagrams for individual commands.
The N9061A application supports the OA parameter that is found in several legacy commands such as
AT and CF. OA is the equivalent of a query so that “CF OA” has a return value equivalent to “CF?”.
Device clear is supported by the N9061A application and causes a mode preset of the signal analyzer.
Unsupported Commands and Queries
If a command is valid for legacy products but not supported by the N9061A application, there will be no
error message generated, although the Command Log file will note a "Command Not Supported"
comment. Note that this logging behavior can be controlled via the preferences menu.
If a query is valid for legacy products but not supported by the N9061A application, it will return a "0"
over the GPIB bus to prevent a program from hanging.

Installing the N9061A applicat ion
Installing the N9061A application
Remote language compatibility for the 8566/8568/8560 Series of analyzers is a licensed application on
the X-Series analyzers. The option for 8560 series is N9061A-2FP and the option for 8566/8568 is
N9061A-1FP. The application must be installed and licensed on the X-Series analyzer (PXA, MXA,
EXA but not CXA) for it to work correctly.
Installation
The license is installed on the X-Series analyzer in one of the following ways:
• If you purchased a new X-Series analyzer with the N9061A application then the product is installed
and licensed and ready to use.
• If you have an X-Series analyzer and have subsequently purchased the N9061A application then you
can download the N9061A application from the Agilent website. The N9061A application is installed
as part of a software upgrade. See the link below for Signal Analyzers software upgrade site. After
upgrading your software you should then use your entitlement certificate to license the product (see
Licensing below).
The latest revision of the software may be downloaded from:

Getting Started
Installing the N9061A application
A license key is usually for one instrument model/serial number combination. The license key can only
be installed on that instrument.
License Installation Procedure over USB
1. Redeem the Option Upgrade Entitlement Certificate by following the instructions on the Certificate.
2. After redeeming your Option Upgrade Entitlement Certificate you will receive an e-mail with an
attached License File.
3. Locate a USB storage device and save the .lic file to the root directory of the USB storage device.
4. Connect the USB storage device to one of the signal analyzer USB ports. Windows detects the new
hardware and may display the configuration menu. This menu may be configured according to your
preferences.
5. The signal analyzer autom atically con sumes the l icense file. (This may take a few minutes) When the
license is consumed the Agilent License Manager displays a “Successful License Installation”
message.
6. Alternatively the license file can be manually installed over USB or LAN by placing the license file
in the following folder on the signal analyzer.
C:\Program Files\Agilent\licensing

Then, to select the legacy analyzer you wish to emulate, press the Mode Setup hardkey on the front
panel. Figure 1-2 shows the menu map that allows you to select the 8560 series analyzer or 8566A/B,
8568A/B and therefore the remote control commands to be used in the X-Series analyzer.
Figure 1-2 Mode Setup > Legacy Instrument Selection Menu Map
The HP8560 series and HP8566A/B, 8568A/B key allow you to select which legacy instrument to
emulate. The selected instrument determines the response to the “ID?” command and affects the
behavior of commands such as IP. You can use any command offered by any of the legacy instruments
regardless of the language setting. However, if the command is not correct for the selected legacy
instrument there is no guarantee that the command will work as expected. This does not affect the
response to the SCPI command “*IDN?”.
