Spectrum Master Specifications
Spectrum Master UG PN: 10580-00277 Rev. E 1-5
Measurements may be stored in the internal memory or a USB flash drive. Stored
measurements can be downloaded to a PC by using the included USB and Ethernet cables.
After being stored, the graphic trace can then be displayed, scaled, or enhanced with markers
and limit lines. Historical graphs can be overlaid with current data by using the PC mouse in
drag-and-drop fashion. The underlying data can be extracted and used in spreadsheets or for
other analytical tasks.
1-8 Spectrum Master Specifications
Refer to the Technical Data Sheet listed in Section 1-1 for general specifications, detailed
measurement specifications for all available measurement modes, ordering information,
power sensors, and available accessories. The data sheet is included with the instrument and
also available on the Anritsu web site: http://www.anritsu.com.
1-9 Calibration Requirements
The Spectrum Master loads factory calibration data during start-up, eliminating the need for
daily calibration checks. In WCDMA modes, an additional automatic calibration is performed
as the internal temperature of the Spectrum Master changes (to insure the best possible
measurement results).
Although the Spectrum Master does not require daily field calibration, Anritsu Company
recommends annual calibration and performance verification by local Anritsu service centers.
1-10 Preventive Maintenance
Spectrum Master preventive maintenance consists of cleaning the unit and inspecting and
cleaning the RF connectors on the instrument and on all accessories. Clean the
Spectrum Master with a soft, lint-free cloth that is dampened with water or with water and a
mild cleaning solution.
Clean the RF connectors and center pins with a cotton swab dampened with denatured
alcohol. Visually inspect the connectors. The fingers of N(f) connectors and the pins of N(m)
connectors should be unbroken and uniform in appearance. If you are unsure whether the
connectors are good, then gauge the connectors to confirm that their dimensions are correct.
Visually inspect test port cables. Test port cables should be uniform in appearance, not
stretched, kinked, dented, or broken.
Note
Not all USB drives are compatible with the instrument. Many drives come with a
second partition that contains proprietary firmware. This partition must be
removed. Only one partition is allowed. Refer to the individual manufacturer for
instructions on how to remove it. Some drives can be made to work by reformatting
them using the FAT32 format.
Caution To avoid damage to the display or case, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners.
