Table 1-31. Storage
Internal hard disk drive: Store and recall instrument states and trace data on 10 GB, minimum, internal hard drive. Trace data can be saved
in CSV (comma separated value) format. All files are MS-DOS
®
-compatible. Instrument states include all control
settings and memory trace data.
File sharing:
Internal hard disk drive (F:) can be accessed from an external Windows
®
PC through LAN or USB (USBTMC)
Disk drive:
Instrument states and trace data can be stored on an internal 3.5 inch 1.4 MB floppy disk in MS-DOS-compatible
format
Screen hard copy:
Printouts of instrument data are directly produced on a printer. The analyzer provides USB and parallel interfaces
Table 1-32. System capabilities
Familiar graphical
The analyzer employs a graphical user interface based on Windows
®
operating system. There are three ways to
user interface:
operate the instrument manually: you can use a hard key interface, a touch screen interface, or a mouse interface.
Limit line
Limit test
Define the test limit that appears on the display for pass/fain testing. Defined limits may be any combination
of horizontal/sloping lines and discrete data points.

Table 1-34. Automation
Methods
Internal analyzer execution:
Applications can be developed in a built-in VBA® (Visual Basic for Applications) language. Applications can
be executed from within the analyzer via COM (component object model) or using SCPI.
Controlling via GPIB
The GPIB interface operates to IEEE 488.2 and SCPI protocols. The analyzer can be controlled by a GPIB
or USB (USBTMC):
external controller. The analyzer can control external devices using a USB/GPIB interface.
Controlling via USB
The USB interface operates with USBTMC and SCPI protocols. The analyzer can be controlled with an
(USBTMC):
external PC using the USB interface with a USB cable.
LAN
Standard conformity:
10 base-T or 100 base-TX (automatically switched), Ethertwist, RJ45 connector
Protocol: TCP/IP
Function: Telnet,
SICL-LAN
