Battery full charge time: approx. 4 hours
Please make sure to connect to ground.

6.1 Stand

Utilize the stand on the back to use the screen in an easier-to-see angle on the desk.

6.2 Connection to power supply

The AC adapter MA400 is used to power the instrument and for charg ing the MB400 battery. (Charging starts automatically if the A C adapter is c onnected and unit is power-off.) Connect the adapter as in the figure below and connect t he AC plug t o the power line (100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz). For static electricity protection, ground the unit by connecting the three cores if possible. Not grounding the unit can damage the unit and/or device being measured. Do not use an AC adapter other than the MA400 supplied with the unit. Using an AC adapter other than the MA400 may cause damage to the unit.
Battery operating time: 4 hours maximum (with backlight set to minimum) *Tested at normal temperature with initial setting parameters.
The battery indicator is divided into five levels and is displayed on the screen. When the mark of the battery remainder displays , the buzzer will sound even if buzzer is OFF under settings, and the power will turn off within a few minutes. Ensure to protect any data or measurements promptly by saving into memory to prevent data lost if the unit shuts down.

* Differing from base band at which the up-c onversion of input frequency is done with a frequency mixer, the spurious resp onse pec uliar to ban d 1- and band 1+ is generated because the down-conversion is done at those two bands. * About SPURIOUS FREE mode
1. SPURIOUS FREE mode is a mode by which the spurious response peculiarly caused at band 1+ is simply deleted.
2. SPURIOUS FREE mode is especially effective in the measurement of a stationary wave.
3. If SPURIOUS FREE mode is used in measurement of a signal with level change or frequency change, the phenomenon that the level goes down will occur.
4. The noise level goes down a little in case of a noise changing at random. In short, the same phenomenon as MIN HOLD function happens.
* How to judge SPURIOUS response at band 1- and band 1+
The procedure for judging SPURIOUS response at band 1- and band 1+ is as follows.
1. Set the center frequency to < (current setting value) + f >.
2. The spectrum shifting left by f is a correct spectrum, but another spectrum shifting such as left by 2f, left by 3f, right by f, right by 2f or right by 3f is a spurious response. * “f ” should be changed according to SPAN for easy judgment. For reference;
f = SPAN / (10 to 50) (corresponding to 0.2 to 1 div) Example: judging a spectrum displayed at 6.92 GHz (setting : center frequency 6.92 GHz and SPAN 500 MHz)
1. Set the center frequency to < 6.92 GHz + 500 MHz/25 > = 6.94GHz.
2. A spectrum at 6.92 GHz (shifting left by f from 6.94 G Hz) is correct. A spectrum at 6.98 GHz (shifting right by 2f from 6.94 GHz) is spurious. * Additio nally, a sp urious re sponse men tioned abo ve shift ing right by 2f at band 1+ is larges t, and othe r spurious response are about 25 to 50 dB smaller than that.
