It is important to activate all of the probes under the DUT to have a complete view of the emissions from
the DUT.

Signal Conditioning Tab
Internal Pre-Amp:
A pre-amp external to the built-in
spectrum analyzer but internal to the ERX+ l EHX+ is OFF
by default. Gain goes from 40 dB at 150 kHz to 15 dB
at 8 GHz. Displayed amplitude levels are automatically
corrected for the gain value.
Level 1 is in fact the Level 2 gain attenuated by the 20 dB
in the spectrum analyzer attenuator. Do not turn ON the
Internal Pre-Amp to Level 2 if the displayed signal level
exceeds the threshold below with Pre-Amp OFF. Use the
highest frequency in the span being measured. Note that
units are in dBm, not dBuV.
150 kHz – 50 MHz
50 MHz – 1 GHz
1 GHz – 8 GHz
-56 dBm
-48 dBm
-39 dBm
In fact when you turn ON the Internal Pre-Amp you will see the following message pop up; click OK if you
wish to proceed.
External RF Bypass:
When ON, the RF signal from the scanner bypasses the built-in pre-amp and
attenuator section and goes to the RF OUT port to which you can connect external devices such as
amplifier, attenuator, passband filter etc. You then connect the output of such external device into the RF
IN port of the built-in spectrum analyzer as long as the power into the RF In port does not exceed
-10 dBm
.
To correct the displayed amplitude levels for the gain or attenuation value, select the value from the drop
down menu or manually entering the value. When the External RF Bypass is ON, the Internal Pre-amp
is automatically turned OFF
