Go to www.anritsu.com, type in your model numberin the “search box” press enter, click on the link that represents yourinstrument, then click on the “Library” tab, go to “Driver, Software Downloads”and click “Firmware update for XXXX (your model)” click where you see “ReleaseHistory” and the improvements/changes will be listed by the option.
Press “Shift”, “System (#8 key)”, “Status” and look at“Package Version”.
We will support the equipment 7 years after its discontinuance date. Pleasecall 800-Anritsu (267-4878) for that information.
Yes. As long as option 31 (GPS receiver), it will work on the following:S331E, S332E, S361E, S362E, S412E, MS2711E, MS2712E, MS2713E, MS2720T, MT8212E, MT8213E, MT8221B, MT8222B, MT8220T, MS2024B, MS2025B, MS2026C, MS2027C, MS2028C, MS2034B, MS2035B, MS2036C, MS2037C, MS2038C, MW82119A.
Firmware updates are located under the library tab on the web page of each Anritsu handheld instrument. The installation process will require the use of an USB Memory Stick. Instructions and prompts will appear when the update is executed on your computer.
Older insturments, ones that do not have a firmware update listed in their library tab, can be updated using Anritsu's Master Software Tools. In this case, the preferred media is Ethernet if they have an Ethernet interface, or serial if they do not.
The MS2721B, MS2723B, MS2724B, MT8222A, and MS2026A are transition instruments. If these instruments have firmware created before August of 2009, Master Software Tools and an Ethernet connection will be requried to update their firmware. Once updated, future updates can be done by the USB Memory Stick method, using firmware downloaded from the instrument's web page.
Yes. Line Sweep Tools supports .MNA files. You can add markers and limit lines. Please download Line Sweep Tools at this link: http://www.anritsu.com/en-US/Products-Solutions/Instructional/Line-Sweep-Tools.aspx
Look on the tool bar of this website and hover your mouse over the “Services & Support” words on the toolbar and click on “Repair and Calibration”. Next, click on “Repair and Calibration Pricing”. Enter your model number. The result will show your model number as a hyper link (in blue). Click on it to see the pricing.
The 18GHz OSLN50, OSLNF50, OSLK50, and OSLKF50 cal kits are tuned to have a capacitance value of 0. That is why the VNA Master “VNA Mode” uses a C=0 setting for those cal kits. The BTS Master VNA app (and the older “A” series VNA Master) are setup to use the older OSL 4GHz and 6GHz cal kits, which had a different capacitance value (not necessarily 0). In reality, when you are only sweeping to 4GHz or even to 6GHz, the capacitance values will not make a noticeable difference.
This is not recommended if you plan to use the marker between two markers function. The reason being is that these values will vary from sweep to sweep. If you are marker 5 and 6 as part of your preset, you will not be able to re-adjust them for marker between two markers (peak or valley). However, if you are setting them for a specific frequency then you need to manually enter a frequency in the “FREQ (MHZ) column.
Marker 5 is used to set the marker between Marker 1 and 2, Peak or Valley.
Marker 6 is used to set the marker between Marker 3 and 4, Peak or Valley.
The only difference is the frequency range. The 2000-767 is DC to 4 GHz and the 2000-1618-R is DC to 6 GHz. There is also a female 7/16 Open/Short/Load part number 2000-768-R and 2000-1619-R. 2000-768-R frequency range is DC to 4GHz and 2000-1619-R is DC to 6GHz.
The steps below detail copying a file from internal memory to an external flash drive.
NOTE:
Select the files to copy in the top window and the location for the files to be copied to in the bottom window.
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”.

Some options for the S331D Site Master require additional hardware or calibration factors to be loaded into the unit so the work needs to be done in either an Anritsu service center or at the Morgan Hill, CA facility. For other options, these can be added via a license file and instructions on how to complete this process are shown below:
Generating an Instrument Config File and Installing A New License File
To automatically queue the Anritsu website for updates, you must configure the Master Software Tools (MST) Internet Settings.
1. Run the MST program.
2. Connect to the instrument.
3. Generate a Config File
a. Pull down the Sync menu and highlight Device Status and Options to open the submenu.
Get Options Highlighted (config file)
b. Click Get Options (Config File). The Save Config File window opens.
c. Go to the folder where the license file was previously stored.
d. Highlight the file and press the Open button. The filename format is model-spaceserialnumber.license.
e. MST will install the new license into the instrument. After the installation is complete, a dialog appears.
“Instrument options successfully upgraded. Cycle power on the instrument to begin using the new features”
f. Follow the instruction.
g. Verify the new option(s) are listed on the boot up screen.
There is a rack mount kit available for current models of handheld instruments. The part number is 66864. This kit can be used with the following models: S331E, S332E, S361E, S362E, MT8221B, MT8222B, MT8212E, MT8213E, S412E, MS2024B, MS2025B, MS2034B, MS2035B, MS2026C, MS2028C, MS2036C, MS2038C, MS2722C, MS2723C, MS2724C, MS2725C, MS2726C, MS2711E, MS2712E, MS2713E, and MS2721B
