Automating Measurements

Configuring Your Test System

Network Analyzers

Without
Controlled by

In this configuration, the measurement is controlled by a computer external
to the analyzer, using the LAN or the HP-IB interface. The measurement

setup and control can be highly automated, reducing the burden on the
operator, and statistics can be collected in order to monitor your process and

quality. You can connect one or more analyzers to each computer. Since

the computer can be connected to other computers via Local Area Network

(LAN), measurement statistics can be easily tracked and archived using

computer applications.

N O T E

You must have Option

installed in Your analyzer to use the LAN port. If you have Option

refer to your

Option

Guide Supplement

for information on using your analyzer with a LAN.
