Using an 8566B Spectrum Analyzer
Operation
3. On the spectrum analyzer, set the preselector DAC to 32 (the center of its 0–63 range)
by pressing
SHIFT, GHz, 32, and Hz.
4. Set the spectrum analyzer to a frequency span of 0 Hz by pressing
FREQUENCY, SPAN, 0,
and
Hz.
NOTE Due to the repetitive nature of this procedure, it may be helpful to save the
center-frequency settings as indicated in steps 5 and 7 in unused state
registers.
5. Set the spectrum analyzer center frequency to the low end of the band by pressing
CENTER FREQUENCY and entering the corresponding value for the mixer listed below,
then save this setting in an unused register.
for an 11974A: 26.5 GHz
for an 11974Q: 33.0 GHz
for an 11974U: 40.0 GHz
for an 11974V: 50.0 GHz
6. On the rear panel of the 11974, adjust the corresponding potentiometer for the mixer
listed below until one or both of the green LEDs are lit.
for an 11974A: “26.5 GHz SET”
for an 11974Q: “33.0 GHz SET”
for an 11974U: “40.0 GHz SET”
for an 11974V: “50.0 GHz SET”
7. Change the spectrum analyzer center frequency to the high end of the band as indicated
below; then save this setting in an unused register:
for an 11974A: 40 GHz
for an 11974Q: 50 GHz
for an 11974U: 60 GHz
for an 11974V: 75 GHz
8. On the rear-panel of the 11974, adjust the corresponding potentiometer for the mixer
listed below until one or both of the green LEDs are lit.
for an 11974A: “40 GHz SET”
for an 11974Q: “50 GHz SET”
for an 11974U: “60 GHz SET”
for an 11974V: “75 GHz SET”
9. Repeat step 5 through step 8 until green lights are lit at both frequencies without any
additional adjustments.
