Starting the Analyzer, Shutdown
To start the analyzer, proceed as follows:
1. Make sure that the instrument is connected to the AC power supply and the power switch on
the rear panel is in position I (On).
2. If necessary, press the STANDBY toggle switch on the front panel to switch the instrument to
ready state (the green LED is on).
In ready state, the analyzer automatically performs a system check, boots the Windows XP Embedded
operating system and then starts the network analyzer (NWA) application. If the last analyzer session
was terminated regularly, the NWA application uses the last setup with all instrument settings.
To shut down the analyzer, proceed as follows:
1. Press the STANDBY key to save the current setup, close the NWA application, shut down
Windows XP Embedded and set the instrument to standby state. Of course you can also
perform this procedure step by step like in any Windows session.
2. If desired, set the AC power switch to position 0 (Off).
Attention!
It is strongly recommended to switch the analyzer to standby state before
disconnecting it from the AC supply. If you set the power switch to 0 while the NWA
application is still running, you will lose the current settings. Moreover, loss of
program data can not be excluded if the application is terminated improperly.
Connecting External Accessories
The equivalent USB ports on the front and rear panel of the analyzer can be used to connect a variety
of accessories:
• A mouse simplifies operation of the instrument using the controls and dialogs of the graphical user
interface; see external monitor below.
• A keyboard simplifies the entry of data.
• A printer generates hard copies of the Graphical User Interface (GUI, see external monitor below)
and the measurement results.
In addition the analyzer provides interfaces for monitor connection and network integration:
• An external monitor shows the magnified Graphical User Interface (GUI) with all diagram areas
and controls. With an additional mouse connected to the analyzer, it is possible to control the
analyzer from the the GUI.
• A LAN connection can be established in order to access the hard disk or control the analyzer from
an external PC.
