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 automatically consumes the license 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

Verify the Installation

1.Press System > Show > System to display the list of installed applications.

2.Verify that the new application appears in the list.
