HP 8753ET/ES supplemental
characteristics (continued)
Trace functions
Display data
Display current measurement data, memory data, or
current measurement with measurement and memory
data simultaneously.
Trace math
Vector division or subtraction of current linear mea-
surement values and memory data.
Display annotations
Start/stop, center/span, or CW frequency, source level,
scale/div, reference level, marker data, softkey func-
tions, warning and caution messages, trace identifica-
tion, and pass/fail indication.
Autoscale
Automatically selects scale resolution and reference
value to center the trace.
Electrical delay
Offset measured phase or group delay by a defined
amount of electrical delay, in seconds.
Frequency blanking
Blank out all frequency information on the display.
Requires an instrument preset to re-enable frequency
information on the display.
Title
Add custom titles (49 characters maximum) to the dis-
play.
Adjust display
Customize the color and brightness of the data traces,
memory traces, reference lines, graticules, text, and
warning messages. Default colors can be recalled along
with one set of user-defined display values.
Storage
Instrument state
Up to 31 instrument states can be stored internally or
recalled via the SAVE/RECALL menu. Instrument
states include all control settings, active limit lines,
active list frequency tables, memory trace data, active
calibration coefficients, and custom display titles.
Storage is in nonvolatile memory.
Test sequences
Six measurement sequences can be stored or recalled
via the sequencing menu. Sequences may also be
recalled from Preset menu. Sequence register 6 is part
of nonvolatile storage and is not erased during a power
cycle. If sequence 6 is titled AUTO, it will be executed
when power is turned on.
Disk drive
Data, instrument states, user graphics, data plots and
test sequences can be stored on internal floppy disk in
MS-DOS
®
or Hewlett-Packard's standard LIF formats.
Data hardcopy
Data plotting
Hardcopy plots are automatically produced with HP-
GL compatible digital plotters. The HP 8753ET/ES pro-
vides Centronics, RS-232C, and GP-IB interfaces.
Data listings
Printouts of instrument data are directly produced
with a printer such as the HP DeskJet or LaserJet.
Select black & white or color print. For a list of
compatible printers, consult our printer-compatibility
guide Web page at http://www.hp.com/go/pcg
Configure plots
Configure plots completely from the network analyzer
by defining pen color and line type for data, text mark-
ers, graticules, and memory traces.
Functions
Plot trace(s), graticule(s), marker(s), or text including
operating and system parameters.
Quadrants
Plot entire display in one of four different quadrants of
the plotter paper.
System capabilities
Limit lines
Define test limit lines that appear on the display for
go/no go testing. Lines may be any combination of hor-
izontal, sloping lines, or discrete data points. Limit-test
TTL output available for external control or indication.
External source mode
The receiver (input R) detects and phase-locks to any
externally generated CW signal. Receiver inputs A and
B will measure this same frequency for comparison or
tracking measurements.
Automatic
The input signal frequency is counted and
displayed.
Manual
Measures the input signal closest to the frequency
specified by the user (within +0.5 to +5 MHz).
Tuned receiver
Tunes the receiver for a synthesized CW input signal at
a precisely specified frequency. The time bases of the
external RF source or sources must be tied to the
external reference input (rear panel BNC). The built-
in RF source is not used.
