Running Internal Alignments
To meet the instrument performance specifications, the
analyzer must periodically be manually aligned.
1 Connect a BNC cable with the N- BNC adapter between the
CAL OUT and RF IN front panel connectors.
2 After 15- minute warm up, press > Alignment > Align > All
The self alignment takes about 5 minutes.
When an alignment is being run, there will be an audible
clicking sound as the attenuator settings are changed.
This sound is not an indication of a problem.
Please refer
to “Alignment” on page 160 for further information.
Check for Instrument Messages
The spectrum analyzer has two categories of instrument
messages: error and warning messages. A error message is
triggered by operation errors, for example, parameter setting
conflicts or data input that is out of the range of a
parameter. An warning message may be triggered by
hardware defects which could result in damage to
instrument.
Here are some tips to check the instrument messages.
1 Check the display to see if any messages display in the
status bar. Press > More > Show Errors to review each
message. Refer to Chapter 5, “Instrument Messages” for
detailed system message descriptions.
2 When you have reviewed and resolved all of the error
messages, press > More > Show Errors > Clear error queue to
delete the messages.
3 Cycle the power to the analyzer and re- check to see if the
instrument messages are still there.
4 If the error messages cannot be resolved, please contact the
Keysight Customer Contact Center for assistance or service.
