After you enter the ethernet address you want to use (i.e. 10.0.0.2) you must restart the unit on a live ethernet connection. You can use the crossover cable to connect to your computer's ethernet port as a live port, but only if you are assigning an address. If you use the DHCP (dynamic host control protocol), you must hook to a live ethernet connection that allows for DHCP requests.
On the instrument, use a Noise Marker. If you have a captured trace (in dBm) that you want to convert to dBm/Hz, use the following formula: dBm/Hz = dBm - 10 * log(1.03 * RBW)
No, the C/I measurement is intended for use when measuring Wi-Fi (802.11b,g and a) signals. The measurement makes certain assumptions about the nature of the Wi-Fi signal being measured and how it is affected by various types of interferers.
To do this measurement first measure the satellite carrier power. Using a marker, capture the peak of the CW signal to get that power level. Then turn the receiving dish a few degrees so it is aimed at deep space and measure the background noise level. We suggest using a fixed reference marker set at the peak of the CW carrier and a delta marker at the same frequency set to be a noise marker. By doing this, the delta marker value is in dB/Hz relative to the CW signal and once the receiving antenna is turned to deep space the answer can be read directly from the delta marker value.
The battery has internal circuitry that communicates with the main board on the Spectrum Master. Either the battery is defective or something in the Spectrum Master is failing to communicate. Please contact your local service center to have this issue resolved.
After you set the MS2721B to the desired center frequency, make sure you don’t have any attenuation set on input port. Turn Marker one on. Select Peak Search. More Under Marker Style or Fixed Marker turn to fixed or on. Back Turn Delta ON for the marker one. You can change now the RF input level and will have the Delta value.
Currently Anritsu does not but is working diligently to provide a solution.
The GPS coordinates delivered by the instruments are based on the WGS-84 methodology of determining position.
Max. VSWR DC – 18 Ghz 1.06 + .005 fGhz Adapter, DC to 18 GHz, 50 Ohm, N(f)-SMA(f)
According to the WCDMA standard the chip rate is fixed at 3.84 Mcps, thus chip time can derived to be 0.26 micro seconds.
Ec is defined as the chip energy for PCPICH and is determined by multiplying CPICH by the chip time. Ec = CPICH + 10*log10(Chip Time) or Ec = CPICH - 65.84dB
Yes, the display data points are fixed and are independent of the Frequency Span and Resolution Bandwidth. There are 551 display points when the instrument is in the normal screen display. By selecting the Trace Fullscreen (On) feature the display point count increases to 661.
No, it is not possible to set more than 5 segmented limit lines on the MS2711D however we have other Handheld Spectrum Analyzers in which a limit line can consist of up to 40 segments. The model numbers are MS2721B, MS2723B, and MS2724B.
To erase all the user information that is stored in Internal Flash Memory and EEPROM, a master reset needs to be done on the instrument. Below is the master reset procedure.: 1. Turn the MS2724B. 2. Press the Shift button then the 8/System button. 3. Press the System Options soft key. 4. Press the Reset soft key. 5. Press the Master Reset soft key. 6. A dialog box will be displayed on the instruments screen warning that all settings will be returned to factory default values and all user files will be deleted. 7. Press the ENTER button to complete the master reset. 8. After several seconds (which can grow to several minutes if there are a very large number of measurements saved in the instrument) the instrument will reboot.
Yes you can. You can go into the sweep menu (MT8222A, MS272XB) or "MEAS/DISP" menu (MS2711D, S332D, S312D, MT8212B) and select "Min Sweep Time" and enter the desired sweep time. If you enter a time that is faster than what the instrument is capable of then the instrument will change the sweep speed and default to whatever the instrument can do. For every measurement point, the instrument spends a certain time and if it is too fast, then it is measured again. This is why the actual sweep time is usually a little bit longer than the requested time. In zero span mode, the sweep times are exact.
The available detection methods are Peak, RMS, Negative, Sample and Quasi-peak.
An oven controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO) is the reference oscillator that is used in the MS2721B.
Yes - you need Option 19 to use the MA24106A sensor with the Spectrum Master, VNA Master, BTS Master, and Economy Spectrum Analyzer (MS271xB). The software that is included with the purchase of the MA24106A is used to connect the sensor to a PC.
No, the CW Generator cannot be used at the same time as the spectrum analyzer. The tracking generator can be used at the same time as the spectrum analyzer but not at a fixed frequency - the frequency of the tracking generator is the same as (tracks) the spectrum analyzer frequency.
The fastest way is to copy them all to a Compact Flash module and then copy them into your computer using a Compact Flash reader. We've found that the Sandisk Ultra II CF modules are about 3x faster then their slower brethren. If you don't have a CF reader, it may be worth the expense to buy one. You can use a USB memory stick, but they aren't as fast as CF. The fastest we've used is a Sandisk Titanium USB stick - but it is less than one-forth the speed of a fast CF module. USB sticks are slower than CF because of the parallel data architecture of CF compared to USB.
