The cable and antenna analyzer mode is utilized in two ways:
• Field Master MS2080A/MS2090A instruments use an external Site Master™ S331P instrument (sold separately) to facilitate cable and antenna measurements using Field Master as the host controller.
• MS2085A/89A Site Master instruments do not require S331P to make cable and antenna measurements, because they are built with an internal cable and antenna analyzer.
The S331P is a one-port, 150 kHz to 4 GHz (Option 704) or 150 kHz to 6 GHz (Option 706) ultra-portable cable and antenna analyzer designed to make return loss, VSWR, cable loss, and distance-to-fault (DTF) measurements in the field. The S331P has no external power supply. It is powered via USB and controlled from the Field Master Series with the appropriate firmware and option installed.
More details on the Site Master S331P cable and antenna analyzer can be found in the Site Master S331P Technical Data Sheet (11410-00964), and related literature on the S331P product page: http://www.anritsu.com/test-measurement/products/s331p.

The cable and antenna analyzer mode in Site Master instruments operates in an exactly same fashion but without the need for an external S331P.
Field Master Series Setup
Connect the S331P to the Cable and Antenna Analyzer controller using a USB-A to Micro-B cable. The cable included with the S331P has a secure latching screw to maintain connection to the S331P.
Field Master Series CAAUSB Setup
Selecting the Analyzer - Field Master
The Cable and Antenna Analyzer instrument analyzer is selected from the 9-dot icon or from the current measurement icon. To select an analyzer, touch the 9-dot icon in the title bar or touch the current measurement icon to display the available analyzers (see Figure: Selecting the CAAUSB Analyzer). Select the CAAUSB application and then select CAAUSB icon to load cable and antenna analyzer. The analyzers available for selection depend on the options that are installed and activated on your instrument. Some measurements and views are accessed via measurement setup menus. Get yout test port cable, calibration components and device under test ready to start making cable and antenna measurements.
