Compatible Signal Generators
— N5173B EXG*
— N5183B MXG*
* All models of EXG and MXG can be used by reducing the Frequency in the
measurements below to be within the capabilities of your signal generator.
This demonstration shows how changing measurement parameters after a
calibration may require adding additional Cal states. A signal generator and a
signal analyzer connected through USB or LAN is required for source control.
This measurement example calibrates for a 3 dB attenuator. For signal
generator control, refer to “Setting Up a Signal Analyzer to Control a Signal
Generator” on page 28.
On the Signal Analyzer
1. Connect the RF output of the signal generator to the RF input of the signal
analyzer.
2. Select Mode > Spectrum Analyzer > Mode Preset to set the signal
analyzer to a known state.
