Overview of the Installation Procedure
Note that step 2 is necessary only for the E8356A network analyzer because it requires a new
A12 source assembly.
1. Verify the serial and option numbers of the analyzer.
2. Replace the A12 source assembly (E8356A only).
3. Enter the new model number.
4. Verify that the new model number is shown correctly.
5. Replace the model number nameplate on the front panel.
6. Perform source and receiver calibration adjustments.
Tools and Equipment Required for the Installation
Step 1.
Verify the Serial and Option Numbers of the Analyzer
Refer to the License Key Certificate supplied with the kit:
• Verify that the analyzer’s serial number matches the serial number on the certificate.
• Verify that the option number on the certificate is either 1F6 (for a 6 GHz upgrade) or
1F9 (for a 9 GHz upgrade).
If either the serial number or the option number does not match the expected results, you will
not be able to install the option. If this is the case, contact Agilent for assistance. Refer to
“Getting Assistance from Agilent” on page 5
