Upgrades for analysis bandwidth depend on the vintage of the instrument and the options already installed. More than one option may 
be required to achieve desired wider analysis bandwidth. Use our web-based calculator to find the upgrade options you may need:

1.  At the time of manufacture, the hardware related to many of these options was fully adjusted and the option performance was verified to be within its 

warranted specifications. Within two years of the initial calibration date of the analyzer, this option is fully calibrated with no further adjustment or 
verification testing.

2.  If this analyzer has been adjusted as part of a repair or calibration during its two years, or if the analyzer is more than two years old, additional adjustment 

and performance verification tests are required to ensure that some newly installed options are functioning properly. However, the completion of these tests 
does not guarantee that the analyzer meets all warranted specifications.

3.  This upgrade option is for instrument(s) ordered before May 1, 2011.

Instrument Upgrades

Fast license-key upgrades for performance options that do not require additional 
hardware:

1.  Place an order for the upgrade with Keysight and request to receive the  

 

option upgrade entitlement certificate and a one-time software upgrade    
license through email

2.  Redeem the certificate through the Web by following the instructions on    

the certificate

3.   Install the license file and latest software in the MXA
4.   Begin using the new capability 

1, 2

Installation and testing information is available at:  

www.keysight.com/find/mxa_upgrades

You can upgrade! 

Options can be 
added after your 
initial purchase. 

All of our X-Series 
application options  
are license-key upgradeable.
