Manual Operation

Compatibility

The HP 8360 series synthesized sweepers are designed to be, in all
but very few cases, a complete feature

of the HP

synthesized sweepers. The most notable omissions are that the
HP 8360 series does not accept:

n

line triggers (ie 50 or 60 Hz line frequency)

n

instrument preset conditions for the HP 8360 series and the HP

An instrument preset turns off all the functions and then
