Hewlett-Packard to Agilent Technologies Transition

This documentation supports a product that previously shipped under the Hewlett-

Packard company brand name. The brand name has now been changed to Agilent

Technologies. The two products are functionally identical, only our name has changed. The

document still includes references to Hewlett-Packard products, some of which have been

transitioned to Agilent Technologies.

The HP 83711A/12A and HP 83711B/12B

Synthesized CW Generators

The HP 83711A/12A and HP 83711B/12B synthesized CW generators are

referred to as \synthesizers" throughout this manual. The HP 83711A/11B

has a carrier frequency range of 1 GHz to 20 GHz and the HP 83712A/12B has

acarrier frequency range of 10 MHz to 20 GHz. Specication information can

be found in Chapter 4, \Specications and Options

The

HP 83711A/12A and HP 83711B/12B Synthesized CW Generators User's

Guide

is written to accommodate the novice and the expert user

.If you

are unfamiliar with the synthesizer

,Chapter 2, \P

erforming Fundamental

Synthesizer Operations

," is useful. If you are familiar with the synthesizer

Chapter 3, \Generating Signals with the Synthesizer" section is helpful. If

you are looking for specic, detailed information about the synthesizer

,refer

to the remaining chapters as needed.

Notes

1. This manual applies to instruments with rmware revision 10.0 or greater

2. If you have an HP 83711A/12A instrument with rmware revision number

10.0, refer to the

HP 83711A/12A Synthesized Signal Generator User's Guide

(5960-7088).

The Synthesizer at a Glance

The following gure and accompanying text explains some features of the

HP 83711A and HP 83711B

.The HP 83712A andHP 83712B are nearly

identical.

HP 83711B Synthesized CW Generator

The

MSG

yallows you to displa

yerror messages on the front panel displa

Error messages are generated when you

perform ake

ystroke sequence that is not

valid, try to operate the synthesizer in a

mode that is not allowed, etc

The

SHIFT

ychanges the function

of some of the ke

ys. When you press the

SHIFT

keyand then press another ke

the synthesizer performs the function printed

in blue above the ke

The

RECALL

/SA

VE ke

yis used to

save most of the synthesizer operating

parameters in one of nine nonvolatile register

locations so that the

ycan be recalled and

used at a later time

The Automatic L

evel Control ke

ys select

the method used to regulate the synthesizer

output power level. Either internal leveling,

external power meter leveling, or external

diode detector leveling can be selected.

Additional external equipment is required

when either external power meter leveling or

external diode detector leveling is used.

These ke

ys set the carrier frequenc

y and

RF output power level of the synthesizer

The displa

y shows the current values of

synthesizer parameters as well as the status

of man

yof the synthesizer functions. The

displa

y shows the current carrier frequenc

and output power level. The annunciators

that appear below the parameters are only

visible when their associated function is active

The

(

and

)

ys move the cursor

that is over one of the digits in the display

either to the right or left when pressed. The

digit that is under the cursor will be modied

when the knob is rotated. If no cursor

appears in the displa

y, parameter entry or

modication has been inhibited.

The

RF OUTPUT

connector mates with a

Type-N male connector on non-Option 1E9

instruments. The connector mates with a

female APC-3.5 mm precision connector on

instruments with Option 1E9 installed.

The knob is used to increase or decrease

the digit under the cursor (

)in the

displa

yin steps of one

10.

The data entry ke

ys are used to enter

and modify various synthesizer parameters.

The

CKSP

ACE

keycancels all or

part of an erroneous parameter entry before

it has been terminated. The terminator ke

(the right-most column of ke

ys) are used to

choose the units for the entered parameter

as well as to terminate the parameter entry

The

, and

STEP SIZE

keys

are used to increase or decrease a parameter

in predetermined steps.

11.

The Automatic L

evel Control voltage input

(AL

CIN) connector is used as the feedback

path to the synthesizer when its RF output

power level is being leveled externally

12.

The

SPCL

key is used to initiate the

activation of several special functions available

in the synthesizer. Special functions are

additional functions that are not activated b

pressing afront panel ke

yorshifted ke

13.

The POWER switch (LINE on an HP

83711A/12A) turns the synthesizer either on

or o.

Synthesizer rear panel features are depicted and described in detail in

Chapter 5, \Front/Rear P

anel," in this book.

In This Book

This book is divided into the following chapters:



Chapter 1

, \Installing and V

erifying the Synthesizer

," contains procedures

for installing the synthesizer and verifying its operation.



Chapter 2

,\P

erforming Fundamental Synthesizer Operations

," familiarizes

you with the fundamental operation of the synthesizer



Chapter 3

,\Generating Signals with the Synthesizer

," explains how to

generate CW signals and level signals



Chapter 4

,\Specications and Options

," contains alist of the synthesizer

performance specications as well as the various mechanical, electrical,

warranty

,and documentation options that are available



Chapter 5

,\Front/Rear P

anel," contains entries that explain dierent

aspects of the synthesizer front and rear panel. (F

or example

,you turn to

this chapter for information on the RF connectors).



Chapter 6

,\K

eys/Shifted Functions

," contains entries on the function of

each key on the synthesizer front panel as well as the shifted or alternate

function of certain keys



Chapter 7

,\Special Functions

," contains entries on the special functions

available in the synthesizer

.Special functions are hidden during normal

instrument operation and can only be invoked by typing aspecic key

sequence on the synthesizer front panel.



Chapter 8

,\Error Messages

," contains atable that lists all of the error

messages that might be generated during use of the instrument. Each table

entry contains asequence that can be followed to recover from the error

condition.



Chapter 9

,\Legal and Regulatory Information," contains information

related to safety and SCPI conformance information. The product warranty

is also contained in this chapter
