Agilent Technologies N8201A manual Optional . Verify Operation 3 GHz, Performing a Self-Test

Hardware Setup and Configuration 2

(Optional) Step 6. Verify Operation < 3 GHz

	Operation verification is a test that, when completed, will ensure that the downconverter is
	operating correctly in the low band (< 3 GHz).
CAUTION	Make sure that the total power of all signals at the downconverter input does not
	exceed +30 dBm (1 watt).

Performing a Self-Test

Instrument Connections

•Downconverter: 7.5 MHz Out

•Spectrum Analyzer: RF Input

NOTE	The N8201A performance downconverter can be controlled with either the
	SA Remote Web Server or the Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI, but only one interface can
	be used at any given time.
	• If Option H02 is not installed, the N8201A performance downconverter can be manually
	controlled using the Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI.
	• If Option H02 is installed, you can use either the SA Remote Web Server or the
	Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI.
	(For information on using these different interfaces, refer to “(Optional) Step 4. Connect
	to the Agilent N8201A Option H02 Spectrum Analyzer GUI" on page 34 or “Starting the
	Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI" on page 67.)
