The EagleShot file is saved in three file formats: BMP, JPG, TXT.

After the GSP-830 is installed with a GPIB card, firstly viewed from System→F6(More)→F4(System Config), the installation can be confirmed well or so. Then viewed from System→F6(More)→F2(Self Test), the GPIB can be confirmed to work normally or so (there indicates a Pass message with a GPIB card installed). If Fail message appears, please consult the technical support and servicing personnel nearby.

The GSP-830 syntax is generally compatible with IEEE488.2 (1992) and SCPI (1994) standards, no case sensitive distinctions. E.g., meas:freq:cen_9_khz, the underline is the significance of a space bar.

Viewed from the System Configuration message, the optional accessories are checked thoroughly. Press System → F6(More) → F4 (System Config On). Viewed from the message window below, the setup status message for all the optional accessories won’t display on the System Configuration menu below, if a user buys the amplifier (GAP) which is classified into an external equipment.

While a system works already within a non linear field, there generates a harmonic. While two tone signals are input simultaneously, the third inter-modulation harmonic is notably noted. As 1dB signal increases on the fundamental frequency, there generates 3dB Third Inter-Modulation. Particularly the 2 frequency come close together, each 2f1-f2 and 2f2-f1 for the Third Inter-Modulation is relatively close to f1 and f2. Particularly while f1 and f2 come closer, the more difficult the Third Inter-Modulation is unable to be filtered out by a wave filter completely.

The Dynamic Range is where a spectrum analyzer has the capabilities to handle various signals simultaneously. The maximum Dynamic Range hold value is dependant upon the measurement being actually carried out with. The lower Dynamic Range hold limit is determined by natural noise or phase noise. The upper Dynamic Range hold limit is determined by 1dB compression point or distortion caused by a spectrum analyzer overload.

• The dBuV definition is such：Voltage value against 1uV, the X value，the formula：20logX=A(dBuV) (1) A signifies the power value in dBuV.
• The dBm definition is such: Voltage value against 1mW, the X value, the formula：10logX=B(dBm) (2)B signifies the power value in dBm, called Decibel Milliwatt.

The both relation is indicated：dBm+107=dBuV，please seek data relevant to an actual deduction process.

Manner 1：System → System Config, from pull-down System Config option menu, there are some status bars, e.g., LO1, LO2, Reference Status. (For detailed info, please refer to user’s manual.)

Manner 2：On the right upper side of screen (below the pull-down Time option menu), there shows a diagnosis info table- simply detect whether or not the machine works normally. (For detailed info, please refer to user’s manual.)

Manner 3：The GSP-827 provides internal signal to simply confirm whether or not the machine functions normally. By (System → F3) built-in signal calibration significance (100MHz, -30dBm), the instrument functions abnormally, if signal isn’t within the specific spec range.

The GSP-830 currently provides the EagleShot software with waveform records, as default, a single per sec. Each data log is approx. 3k bytes. There’s no question with waveform records within 2 consecutive days (48HR).

For the GSP Series design, the input signal couldn’t exceed 25VDC, the signal power couldn’t be better than 30 dBm. More critically, if the signal is larger and instable (<10dBm and instable size), it is recommended to install an attenuator for more secure factors on measurement.

TG(Tracking Generator) relatively equals a sweep signal generator, its frequency syncs with a spectrum analyzer. Therefore TG is often applicable in Frequency Response measurement. For normal operation, standardization follows measurement, eliminates noises (e.g., Cable/Adapter), then spot the frequency range by way of relative measurement. In the other hand, If the spectrum analyzer is set for Zero Span, SA only carries out with a single frequency measurement. TG outputs a fixed frequency rather than a sweep. In the mean time, TG equals a signal generator. The frequency is consistent with the central frequency on a spectrum analyzer.

The GSP-830 software upgrade is only available for the original manufacturers, branch offices and dealers to assist with updates. Unable to enable customers to update themselves, please consult local branch offices or dealers if customers prefer software version upgrade.
