Manual Conventions

This manual uses certain conventions that you should become familiar with. Some sections of the manual contain procedures for you to perform. To keep
those instructions clear and consistent, this manual uses the following conven­tions:
H
Names of front panel controls and menus appear in the same case (initial
capitals, all uppercase, etc.) in the manual as is used on the analyzer front
panel and menus. Front panel names are all upper-case letters; for example,
DISPLAY, MEASURE, SETUP etc.
H
Instruction steps are numbered unless there is only one step.
Modules
Safety
Throughout this manual, any replaceable component, assembly, or part of the analyzer is referred to generically as a module. In general, a module is an assembly (like a circuit board), rather than a component (like a resistor or an integrated circuit). Sometimes a single component is a module; for example, the chassis of the analyzer is a module.
Symbols and terms related to safety appear in the Safety Summary near the beginning of this manual.

H
Read Preparation for Use in section 2, Operating Information.
When using this manual for servicing, be sure to follow all warnings, cautions, and notes.

Performance Check Interval

Strategy for Servicing

Generally, the performance check described in section 4, Performance Verifica­tion, should be done every 12 months. In addition, performance check is
recommended after module replacement. If the analyzer does not meet performance criteria, repair is necessary.
Throughout this manual, the term, module, refers to any field-replaceable component, assembly, or part of the analyzer.
This manual contains all the information needed for periodic maintenance of the analyzer (Examples of such information are procedures for checking perfor­mance).
Further, it contains all information for corrective maintenance down to the module level. To isolate a failure to a module, use the fault isolation procedures found in Troubleshooting, part of section 6, Maintenance. To remove and replace any failed module, follow the instructions in Removal and Installation Proce- dures, also part of section 6. After isolating a faulty module, replace it with a fully-tested module obtained from the factory. Section 10, Mechanical Parts List, contains part number and ordering information for all replaceable modules.

Product Overview

The 3026 is a portable real time 3 GHz spectrum analyzer with real-time frequency analysis functions.
The incorporated 3 GHz down converter enables you to perform spectrum analysis, time domain analysis, and analog modulation analysis of Radio Frequency (RF) signals without connecting any external devices.
The 3026, with the adoption of new architecture, can acquire time and frequency domain data simultaneously. It can also accurately capture various kinds of signals with a wide variety of triggering functions.
Real-time trigger functions in frequency domain allow you to trigger on instantaneous events such as the starting point of a burst signal.
Using the trigger functions in time domain, triggering is available on impulse noises which are barely captured in frequency domain.
In addition, the 3026 provides measurement functions that can evaluate the performance of radio devices with simple operation. Moreover, four types of data display functions offered in the system can allow you to analyze the acquired data more precisely.
