Along the same lines, might there be a copy of the
firmware update disk image for the 54540A scope ? That
was also a 'springs box from the same era.

The 1989 HP Application Notes Index has this abstract of AN 245-3:

"Third Octave Analysis with the HP 3582A Spectrum Analyzer

Provides a means for making 1/3 octave measurements with an HP 3582A
controlled by an HP 9835A desktop computer.  Discusses traditional 1/3
octave analysis techniques and how to adapt an FFT analyzer to do the
job. ... A program listing and flow diagrams are included..."

Maybe not exactly what you are looking for?

I have an HP35665A FFT analyzer so I think I understand your situation
somewhat.  Although an FFT analyzer has some display characteristics
and control names similar to a swept spectrum analyzer, there is much
that is different to learn: record length, bins, display resolution,
time record, window functions, etc.

A basic primer on dynamic signal analyzers will probably help a lot.
There are a number of documents on Agilent's site that are intended
for other instruments but should still be helpful in developing an
understanding of dynamic signal analyzer concepts.

Search there for "dynamic signal analyzer" or similar.

Also, according to the Application Notes Index, you might find these
helpful if you can find them:

AN 243, The Fundamentals of Signal Analysis, a 60 page primer on
dynamic signal analyzers.

AN 243-1 covers vibration analysis with a dynamic signal analyzer

There is also AN 192, Using a Narrow Band Analyzer for Characterizing
Audio Products [more geared to the 3580A / 3581A analyzers]

the HP 3582A Spectrum Analyer part no. 5952-8773.  I'll take anything,
regardless of condition as long as it's readable.  I'll take any help I

  My scope does not have a 50 ohm input. If I connect the generator
  output to a BNC T-connector with a 50 ohm termination on the other
  end, it makes no difference in the waveform shape. I've probably
  overstated the distortion a bit. I looked at it again this evening and
  it is not quite as I had described it earlier. The waveform is fairly
  rounded however when it approaches the peaks.

HSDI, HP9417, HP9418 and HP9419

#5301

I currently work at KSC, Florida in the NSLD (overhaul and maintenance
of orbiter electronics).  We use an ATE that is primarily HP
equipment, granted OLDer equipment.

Several components are pivotal for this system to work and interface
with other vital components such as the HP computer and ITA for
interface with ETU and flight LRU's.  These are the HSDI interface 
cards (HP part# 94176A) and the HP9417/9418/9419 pattern
generator/analyzer/guided probe system.  The HSDI cards were actually
built by Hunter Technology, from what we know, to interface with HP
and Interface Technology components.  The HP9417/9418/9419 components
were built by Interface Technology with HP faceplates (known as TS-
4024, reference  ).

We are currently having intermittent HSDI connectivity issues and also
some HP9417 processing issues.  Of course, our spare parts are
dwindling as is support.  We are working with Interface Technology,
they are helping but their door is closing soon.

Does anyone out there have knowledge of HSDI in the context of
interfacing Interface Technology components to HP components?  This
seems to be a bit of a puzzle and 'hidden' talent out there.

I have tried HParchives and Agilent archives/obsolete manual sites,
and have been recommended to try asking on here.
