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.
Yes, with limitations. A spectrum analyzer can be used to measure the noise figure of a device with a significant amount of gain. The basic method is to start by measuring the noise floor of the instrument with a termination on the input. It is best to do this with attenuation set to 0 dB and the preamplifier turned on with a high averaging value (say, 100 or more). Turn on a marker along with a delta marker and set the marker type to FIXED. Next, connect the ampifier to be measured to the spectrum analyzer's input and move the termination to the input of the amplifier. Restart averaging and wait for the averaging to complete. The delta marker value will be the noise figure of the DUT plus the spectrum analyzer's noise figure divided by the gain of the amplifier. This method isn't suitable for low gain devices because of the "second stage contribution" of the spectrum analyzer.
The position accuracy is approximately +/-6 meters under ideal conditions. This is not a specification, just characteristics. The actual accuracy depends on the number of satellite signals being received and their position in the sky. The more satellites and the farther apart they are in the sky, the better the accuracy. Our GPS receiver does not use the WAAS enhancement to GPS.
Yes, by using our GPS receiver option (MT8222A-031), with GPS receiver active the MT8222A has a 25 ppb frequency error accuracy, twice as good as the 3GPP specification. The unit also offers an automatic holdover mode if the GPS antenna is disconnected, and will maintain a 50 ppb frequency error accuracy for up to 72 hours, even if the unit is turned off.
Approximately +/- 20 Meters but this is not specified.

Insert a USB drive into either USB Type A port of the Site Master.
From the File main (shift/file (#7 key)) menu, press the “Copy (soft key)” submenu key. The Copy submenu and Copy dialog box are displayed (picture below).
Select the file(s) to copy. To select multiple files, highlight the first then press the “Select or De-Select” key to keep the file selected. NOTE: (Press again to de-select if you choose not to copy the file.) The file will be outlined in blue. Repeat with all the files to copy. To display files in a folder, select the folder and press the Enter key.
Press the Scroll key and highlight the USB drive and press “select or de-select” soft key in the lower window using the touch screen or the Up/Down arrow keys or Thumb Wheel. NOTE: The Scroll submenu key toggles between Src (top window) and Dst (bottom window). Basically, the top window (src) is where you copy from and the bottom (dst) is where those files are going to.
Press the Copy key to copy the files to the flash drive.
NOTE: If you want to check and see if those files have been copied, simply press the Scroll soft key (to get to your Src or source box), use your Up/Down arrows or Thumb Wheel to get to your USB Drive and press “Enter”.

The presence of large signals, even if they are outside of the span range to which the instrument is set can cause mixer saturation and generate a warning so the user knows that measurement accuracy may be compromised. Increase input attenuation to reduce the amplitude of the signal into the instrument's circuits.
Sweep time is affected by the RBW, the VBW, the number of markers and the detector type. Use a wide video bandwidth, a relatively wide resolution bandwidth, turn off all markers and select the sample detector for the fastest sweep time. Also, use the minimum span to make the required measurements.
While you are creating a limit line (aka spectral mask) set the limit line type to "Relative" in the Limit Advanced menu. Save the limit line with the name of your choice. When you recall that limit line it will be set to whatever the center frequency of the instrument is. If you saved a limit line as an Absolute limit line it will be recalled to the frequency at which it was created. If that is your case, go to the Limit Move menu and press the "Move Limit to Current Center Freq" soft key.
The MS272xB, MS271xB and MT8222A have three traces available. The best way to see the maximum and minimum simultaneously is to set Trace A to Normal, Trace B to Max Hold and Trace C to Min Hold.
For all detector types except Sample, the instrument makes enough measurements for each display point that there are no gaps in the frequency coverage. The Sample detector only makes one measurement per display point so gaps do occur if the resolution bandwidth is less than 1/551 of the span.
Yes, the BTS Master MT8222A version V1.48 onwards can be controlled using LMF software version 2.20 and up. To use a BTS Master with LMF, open LMF and click on the Tools menu, then on the Option menu item. In the LMF Options window, click on the Test Equipment Tab and select the Network Connection Type. Select Agilent E7495 and then connect. The Anritsu BTS Master will emulate the communication of the Agilent E7495. This particular implementation is supported by Anritsu, not Motorola. For any questions or issues related to this interface, please contact Anritsu at 1-800-ANRITSU.
There are two basic ways to stabilize the display. It depends on the circumstances, as to which one is better. You can set the instrument to trigger a sweep based on an amplitude value, such as overshoot at the start of a pulse. If an external trigger signal is available, that is probably the easiest way to get a stable display. For the MS272xB, MS271xB and MT8222A, access the menu to set these things up using | Shift | Sweep | Trigger Type |. A possible third way is to adjust the sweep time to attempt to match the repetitation rate of the signal you are measuring. The sweep time can be adjusted in 1 microsecond steps.
No, the instrument is calibrated on the production line to make accurate measurements of signals. Variations in the noise floor merely show changes in the sensitivity of the instrument, not in the accuracy.
An Absolute limit line is one that, when recalled from memory, returns to the frequency at which it was created. A Relative limit line, when recalled, is automatically centered on the spectrum analyzer's current center frequency. If your measurements are always at one frequency than using Absolute limit lines is sensible. If you make measurements at many different frequencies then Relative limit lines make your job easier because when you create a limit line (also called emission mask) once, you can use it at any desired frequency without having to recreate it each time.
Use the Peak detector most of the time. This choice displays the largest measured value for each of the 551 display points. Use the RMS detector if you are measuring noise or noise-like signals such as a CDMA Bart's head. Use the Negative detector to display the smallest measured value for each display point. This is useful when attempting to pick out signals that are near the noise floor. Use the Sample detector when using the tracking generator. There is one measurement made for each display point. Use the Quasi-peak detector if you are doing EMC measurements following the CISPR standards.
No, that capability is not included in the instrument.
The GPS coordinates delivered by the instruments are based on the WGS84 methodology of determining position. WGS stands for World Geodetic System and is the method employed by the GPS satellite system to determine position.
