Instrument Software Overview
Instrument Software Overview
The instrument software, installed in every instrument, contains not only the
spectrum analyzer measurement application, but also all of the other currently
available measurement applications. However, only the licensed applications
will be seen and available for use.
To view the currently licensed measurement applications press System, Show
System. In addition to listing the application model number and description
you will also see the revision of each. However, the complete package itself
also has a revision associated with it, which can also be found on this screen as
the “Instrument S/W Revision”.
Since the instrument application software is distributed in one complete
package, when an update is installed they are all updated at the same time.
One of the benefits of this is that you cannot have revisions that are
incompatible with each other installed in an instrument. However, there is one
exception to this, which would be the 89601A VSA software. While the latest
revision of the 89601A VSA software is installed in each instrument as it left the
factory, it must be updated, and kept in sync with the rest of the instrument
application software independently.
Software Licensing
All application software needs to have a valid license in order to be available
for use. This also includes the spectrum analyzer application (N9060A).
