Options 809, 813, and 820 add a Tracking Generator to the Spectrum Analyzer mode of the instrument. The Tracking Generator generates a swept signal with an output frequency that is the same as the tuning frequency of the spectrum analyzer.
Additionally, a CW generator feature is included in these options. The sine wave output frequency and power is set by the user. Refer to CW Generator Overview.
The output power is leveled and has a specified power range from –40 dBm to +0 dBm in 0.1 dB steps.
Note
Operation outside this power range is possible. However, performance and compliance with specifications are not guaranteed.
Power output information is available for both absolute and transmission (normalized) measurements.
