OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Introduction

A Spectrum Analyzer is an instrument that graphically

presents a plot of signal amplitude as a function of frequency

for a selected portion of the spectrum. The Type 491 is

designed to provide a spectral display of the frequency

distribution of electromagnetic energy within the frequency

range of 10 MHz to 40 GHz. Signals are displayed as a

spectrum on a CRT screen with signal energy plotted on the

vertical axis against frequency on the horizontal axis.

The Type 491 can be operated from either 115 or 230-volt

nominal line voltage with a range from 90 to 136 VAC or

180 to 272 VAC. Two selector-type connectors on the power

input panel may be positioned to accommodate these volt-

age ranges. The selection assembly also includes two line

fuses which are positioned correctly when the correct selec-

tion is made for either 115 or 230-volt nominal operation.

Fig. 2-3 shows the power input panel on the rear of the

instrument and the voltage range and nominal line voltage

selectors.

This type of display provides the following information;

The presence or absence of signals, their frequencies, fre-

quency drift, relative amplitude of the signals and the nature

of modulation if any, plus many other characteristics.

This section of the manual describes the function of the

front and rear panel controls and connectors, power supply

connection, and a procedure for first time operation, to intro-

duce the operator to the operational functions of the controls.

The remainder af the section then describes operation tech-

nique with some measurement applications and signal

interpretations.

Front Cover and Handle

The front cover furnished with the Type 491 provides a

dust tight seal around the front panel. Use the cover to

protect the front panel when storing or transporting the

instrument, The cover also provides storage for the external

waveguide mixers and other accessories. See Fig. 2-1.

CAUTION

Removing or replacing the dust cover on the instru-

ment may be hazardous, if the” instrument is lifted

out of, or slid into, the dust cover. To remove or

replace the dust cover, set the instrument on a

bench or table, then slide the cover off or on the

instrument. The instrument may also be set on the

front panel cover and the dust cover slipped on or

off the instrument. Do not set the instrument on

the front panel controls.

The handle of the Type 491 can be positioned to carry

the instrument or it can be positioned at several angles to

serve as a tilt-stand. To position the handle, press in at both

pivot points (see Fig. 2-2) and adjust the handle to the

desired position. The instrument may also be set upright

on the rear panel feet for operation or storage.

Voltage Considerations

491

2-1

Fig. 2-2. Handle positioned to provide a stand for the instrument.

CAUTION

The Type 491 should not be operated with these

voltage selector switches in improper positions.

Operation of the instrument with incorrect voltages

will either blow the protective fuses or the instru-

ment will not operate properly.

The Voltage Range Selector located on the rear panel

permits the instrument to operate on line voltages above and

below the nominal 115 or 230 volts. Each selection provides

correct regulation through an overlap voltage range into the

next higher or lower range. It is best to select a range with

its center voltage near your nominal line voltage, thus pro-

viding adequate regulation over a plus and minus devia-

tion of the input line voltage.

The following procedure will prepare the instrument for

operation at your average input line voltage:

1. Remove the cover assembly over the selectors by

unscrewing the two cap screws, then pull the cover with the

attached fuses away from the panel.

2. Pull the Line Voltage Selector out and turn the connector

around to plug it back into the correct position.

3. To change the regulating range, pull out the Range

Selector bar, slide it to the desired range and plug it into

the correct position. Select a range which is centered about

the average line voltage to be applied to the instrument.

See Fig. 2-3.

4. Re-install the cover. Make certain the cover fits firmly

against the rear panel, so the line fuses are seated in their

sockets, and tighten the two cap screws.

5. Before applying power to the instrument, check that the

indicating tabs on the switch bars are protruding through

the correct holes for the desired voltage setup.

Spectrum Analyzer Terms

The following glossary of spectrum analyzer terms is pre-

sented as an aid to understanding the terms as they are used

in this manual.

Spectrum Analyzer-A device that displays a graph of the

relative power distribution as a function of frequency, typi-

cally on a cathode-ray tube or chart recorder.

Types: Real-time and non real-time.

A real-time spectrum analyzer performs a continuous

analysis of the incoming signal, with the time sequence of

events preserved between input and output.

A non-real-time spectrum analyzer performs an analysis

of repetitive events by a sampling process.

Methods: Swept front end and swept intermediate fre-

quency.

A swept front end spectrum analyzer is a superheterodyne

spectrum analyzer in which the first local oscillator is swept.

A swept IF spectrum analyzer is a superheterodyne spec-

trum analyzer in which a local oscillator other than the first

is swept.
