66 Agilent N8201A Performance Downconverter Synthetic Instrument Module, 3 Hz to 26.5 GHz
3 Using the Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI
N O T E
Although only one interface can be used at any given time, the N8201A performance
downconverter can be controlled with any of the following:
• Agilent N8201A Option H02 Spectrum Analyzer GUI
• SA Remote Web Server
• Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI
Which interface should be used:
• If Option H02 is not installed, the N8201A performance downconverter can be manually
controlled using the Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI; without Option H02, the
N8201A performance downconverter cannot be controlled with SCPI commands.
• If Option H02 is installed, you can use either the Agilent N8201A Option H02 Spectrum
Analyzer GUI, the SA Remote Web Server, or the Agilent Synthetic Instrument GUI.
(For information on using these different interfaces, refer to
“(Optional) Step 4. Connect
