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:

NOTE

No calibration is required after the N9061A application is installed.

Licensing

When you order a licensed product, you receive an entitlement certificate. Instructions are provided on your entitlement certificate to direct you to the Web site to redeem your certificate for a license key. You need to provide your instrument product number and serial number, and the entitlement certificate number.
