HP 8562A input connector
My 8562A has a SMA input connector instead of the usual type N.
Is this because it's an option 26, 26.5 GHz instead of 22? Is there a standard bit of plumbing that can be changed to get back to a type N? By the time I go through a couple of adapters to get from SMA to BNC, I have a rather fragile assembly - an N connector with a N to BNC adapter would be much better. John |

I dont know the 3582A but am very familiar with the earlier 3561A-marvellous instrument. Used it for all sorts of things, including transient analysis, for many years. I dont know how the 3582A stacks up against the 3561A but its clearly a later model FFT analyser so you should have no problems at all using it to do what you want. Driving an FFT analyser (Dynamic Signal Analyser was HPs fancy name-DSA for short) is VERY different to a swept frequency analyser so you need to brush up on all you can on use of DSAs-should be lots of useful info out there on the internet.

I do believe that You are looking for a low frequency FFT analyzer.They are very easy to come by if You are willing to use the soundcard in Your pc. There are numerous FFT programs for free on the internet.One of the best is ,but not free are spectralab from sound technology.A demo can bee dowloaded-it has a very good manual covering muost topics in FFT.

Hank, Unless you have a means of continuously exciting the string(s) on the guitar, you might be disappointed because this SA doesn't work well on transient phenomena. In fact few SAs do unless you have a special option which allows for measurements of bursts (such as radar).

HP87075B Help
wspx472
I have a HP87075B multiport test set that I would like to use with a
8714es network analyzer. The analyzer is meant to interface with the "C" model, but doesn't work with the "B". Agilent doesn't have a manual available. Does anyone have either a manual for the "B", or any experience in interfacing one to a 8714es? Thanks |

I think you should be able to perform the tests you want.

The 1982 HP catalog devotes five pages describing the 3582A. One paragraph states: "Transient Capture and Analysis Many signals ... occur infrequently and spontaneously and may last only for a brief period of time. Swept spectrum analyzers generally cannot handle these transient signals. By using digital processing techniques, the Model 3582A can capture and analyze transients as short as a few milliseconds." I would start by mastering dynamic signal analyzer concepts such as are explained in Agilent's Application note 243, "The Fundementals of Signal Analysis", available at: There are other useful application notes there as well. Be sure you have your instrument's operation manual handy and then experiment with your instrument by analyzing tones from a function generator. As you experiment with different waveshapes, sine, triangle, square, you will become familiar with the operation of an FFT instrument. From there, start running experiments. Set up a microphone and if necessary a preamp. Get the levels right first. Then figure a way to trigger the analyzer's acquisition at the proper time. You might even create an electromechanical device to strum the string and generate the trigger signal. Have fun. ---------------------------------------------------- --- In hp_agilent_equipment@..., "wd5jfr" <kolesnik@...>

The holes are 1.75" apart, and there are 4 of them. This is the type that has a 6.5" x .5" x 1/8" tab that fits into the side of the case (I don't know if there are other types from this era). As far as handles, I guess I'd prefer to have handles also, but they aren't that important. Thanks! -Dave -------------- Original message --------------

It turned out to be nothing more than a bad battery. I think that the CMOS data was corrupted, leading to the failure to continue the self-test. It turned out that the battery is soldered to the board under the rear frame, and is not easy to access even if you could find a replacement (3V lithium). I clipped it out and shorted the terminals on the PCB for a minute to ensure that the CMOS was completely discharged. Then I wired in a 2 AA cell battery holder and put in a couple of alkaline batteries. You may have a more elegant solution, but this works just fine if you are OK with changing the cells every few years. After putting the scope back together it started up right away. This is a good time to install new firmware, just now available on the Agilent web site. In either case you will need to go through the calibration procedure which is easy to do. You need three BNC Tees and five BNC-BNC cables at least 18" long. Four of the cables need to be the same length. The scope will lead you through the calibration procedure. Be sure to let it warm up for one hour with the cover fully installed before calibrating, or you can get errors and a bad cal.

Wide cable for HP 16550A Logic Analyzer Card
Hi:
I am looking for an HP jumper cable used in a HP 16550A. This is a card that goes in HP 16500A/B/C Analysis System and is a 100-MHz State/500-MHz Timing Logic Analyzer. The cable I am looking for connects two 100 circuit IDC connectors. The HP part number is "16550-61603 Cable Assembly-100 Pos IDC" If anyone has a spare I would appreciate communication with them on- or off-line. I can provide photos of what I need from the manuals. Regards . . . Tom Leedy Clarksburg, MD |
