R&S ESCI Receiver – Operation on a Discrete Frequency
1166.6004.12 4.1 E-2
4 Instrument Functions
All functions of the EMI test receiver and their application are explained in detail in this chapter. The
sequence of the described menu groups depends on the procedure selected for the configuration and
start of a measurement:
1. Resetting the instrument - PRESET key
2. Setting the mode – hotkey bar and LOCAL key
3. Setting the measurement parameters - keys FREQ, SPAN, AMPT, BW, SWEEP, TRIG, TRACE,
CAL
4. Selecting and configuring the measurement function - keys MKR, MKR->, MKR FCTN, MEAS,
LINES
The instrument functions for general settings, printout and data management are described at the end
of this chapter – keys LINES, DISP, SETUP, FILE and HCOPY.
The different softkeys of a menu are described from top to bottom and from the left to the right side
menu. The submenus are marked by an indentation or displayed in a separate section. The whole path
(key - softkey - ...) is indicated in the line above the menu display.
An overview of the menus is given in chapter 3 which also contains the description of the operating
concept.
The IEC/IEEE-bus commands (if any) are indicated for each softkey. For a fast overview a list of
softkeys with the associated IEC/IEEE-bus commands is given at the end of Chapter 6.
An index at the end of the handbook serves as further help for the user.
Mode Selection – HOTKEY Bar
For fast mode selection R&S ESCI has seven keys (the so-called HOTKEYs) which can be allocated
depending on the options installed on the instrument.
Four keys are reserved for the basic model:
SCREEN B
RECEIVER
SPECTRUM
MIXED
SPECTRUM
The SPECTRUM hotkey sets R&S ESCI to spectrum analysis mode.
The spectrum analysis mode is the basic setting of R&S ESCI.
IEC/IEEE-bus command: INST:SEL SAN
