Figure 2-44 External Mixer Setup (a) without Bias; (b) with Bias
NOTE Good-quality shielded SMA-type cables should be used to connect the
mixer to the spectrum analyzer to ensure that no signal attenuation
occurs. Agilent 5061-5458 SMA-type cables may be used. Do not
over-tighten the cables; the maximum torque should not exceed 112
N-cm (10 in-lb).

CONFIG, then EXT
MXR PRE UNPR until UNPR is selected.
3. To select a frequency above 18 GHz:
a. Press
AUX CTRL, EXTERNAL MIXER to set the analyzer to external
mixer mode.
b. Enter the desired frequency directly using the center-frequency
