EP1
Models with option EP1 have a two-
loop local oscillator, which switches to
a single loop for fast tuning
(available in PXA)
Span > 44.44 MHz, or
RBW > 1.9 MHz, or
Source Mode is set to “Tracking”
"Fast Tuning" on
page 1068
Center frequency is < 195 kHz, or
CF >= 1 MHz and Span <= 1.3 MHz
and RBW <= 75 kHz
"Best Close-in"
on page 1066
All other conditions "Best Wide-
offset" on page
1067
EP2
Models with option EP2 use a different
loop bandwidth for the fast-tuning
choice, which is a compromise
between tuning speed and phase
noise, giving good tuning speed at all
offsets. Although not as good as for
"Best Close-in" on page 1066; this is
useful when you have to look across a
wide range of spans
(available, for example, in MXA for
excellent phase noise)
CF < 130 kHz , or
CF > 12 MHz and Span < 495 kHz and
RBW < 40 kHz
"Best Close-in"
on page 1066
Span > 22 MHz, or
RBW > 400 kHz, or
CF ≤ 12 MHz and Span < 495 kHz and
RBW < 23 kHz

EP4
(available in CXA for improved phase
noise)
Span > 101 MHz or
RBW > 1.15 MHz or
Source Mode is set to “Tracking”
"Fast Tuning" on
page 1068
CF is < 109 kHz or
CF >= 4.95 MHz and Span <= 666kHz
and RBW < 28 kHz

All Other Models
Note that in these models, the
hardware does not actually provide for
an extra-fast tuning option, so the
settings for "Fast Tuning" on page
1068 are actually the same as "Best
Close-in" on page 1066, but the rules
are implemented this way so that the
Span > 12.34 MHz, or
RBW > 250 kHz, or
Source Mode is set to “Tracking”
