Configuring a Frequency Sweep
1. Set up the equipment as shown in Figure 2-2 .
NOTE
The PSG signal generator is not compatible with the GPIB system interface of an 8757A,
8757C, or 8757E. For these older scalar network analyzers, do not connect the GPIB
cable in
Figure 2-2 . This method provides only a subset of 8757D functionality. See the
PSG Data Sheet for details. Use the 8757A/C/E documentation instead of this
procedure.

and verify that the
SYSINTF
softkey is set to ON.
This ensures that the system interface mode is activated on the 8757D. The system interface mode
enables the instruments to work as a system.
4. Press
Utility

GPIB/RS-232 LAN
to view the PSG’s GPIB address under the
GPIB Address
softkey. If you
want to change it, press
GPIB Address
and change the value.
5. On the 8757D, press
LOCAL
>
SWEEPER
and check the GPIB address. If it does not match that of the PSG,
change the value.
