agilent n7800a calibration and adjustment software for agilent rf/w in struments agilent customers choosing to perform their own periodic maintenance (performance veri? cation and adjustments) can now use the same automated software used in agilent service centers. agilent strives to provide the best service available for a broad range of instruments, but you may be a customer who balances cost, quality, and cycle time requirements by performing your own calibrations whenever possible. you may have the necessary equipment, facility, manpower, and skill, but for complex rf/w instruments, you could bene? t greatly from having robust automated routines to facilitate the calibration task.
2 the current families of agilent rf/w products are tested in agilent service centers using a robust common soft- ware e nvironment. we are offering licenses to c ustomers who would like to use the same software. these licenses guarantee you have access to the most current versions of test software, while also protecting agilent intellectual property from inappropriate use. this licensing applies to products in the following instrument families: psa esa vsa csa emi x-series psg esg mxg nfa pna p-series e8663b n4010a e6601a u200x 896xx n9039a upconverters downconverters for a complete list of instrument model numbers, please refer to the table in page 6. as other families of instruments become supported with compatible pc-based calibration and adjustment software, they will be added to the licensing program. see page 6 for minimum pc requirements. gain con? dence in calibrations and adjustments: take advantage of agilents experience and expertise in calibration and adjustment software. ? measurement uncertainty analysis based on international standards 1 ? broad set of lab standards supported, all guaranteed to meet uncertainty requirements ? iso/iec 17025 and ansi/ncsl z540.3 compliance ? automatic adjustments where applicable ? flexible test executive, data export, and system management included ? free web download of latest versions covering latest models and options ? network installation capability, with centralized data base run performance tests run adjustments diagnose & order parts install new parts pass? pass? done no no yes yes maximize your cal labs effectiveness, while minimizing turnaround time and cost. with agilent calibration software, you eliminate the time and expense involved in developing software yourself and you gain the con? dence of knowing that your instruments are calibrated in accordance with the manufacturers recommended proce- dures. the software is designed with the ? exibility you need to increase your companys productivity and improve quality. as new instruments and/or options are released, you will save time by simply downloading the latest revision of software from the web. see page 7 for a full list of soft- ware features. 1. iso guide to expression of measurement uncertainty, 1995. records indicate that over 10% of products appearing otherwise healthy actually fail some datapoint during testing, requiring adjustment. even if they do not need hardware replacement or repair, such adjustment would require a round trip to a service provider if the adjustment tools are not available to a self-maintainer. likewise, even when hardware can be repaired in the field, it often requires post-repair adjustment to ensure the instrument is performing within specifications. fig. 2 calibration, adjustment, and repair process
3 save time and expense by automatically adjusting products that fail specifications. the days of screwdriver tweaks are long gone. many of the performance advantages offered by agilent products are due to the ability to ? ne tune the hardware under microprocessor control. ampli? er gains, ? lter corners, dc offsets, and other functions can be adjusted according to measurement environment and component aging. these adjustments require complex iterative external measurements and calculations to characterize the instru- ment and then make the appropriate adjustments. intimate knowledge of the architecture and d etailed circuitry are required, so such adjustment ca- pability is available only in the agilent calibration and adjustment software. service center records indicate that roughly 10% of the products calibrated initially fail some speci? cation, but can be brought into compliance simply through automatic adjustment, eliminating the need for any hardware repair. from your perspective, that means saving a round-trip to an agilent facility for adjustment. automatically generate and report results of measurement uncertainty analyses. while the gains agilent software offers in shorter turnaround times and lower costs are important, agilent has taken even greater steps in ensuring that calibration quality meets the highest possible standards. the software generates a measurement uncertainty analysis for each test point in any calibration you perform. that analysis is based upon the strictest possible interpretation of the regulatory standards, and is guaranteed to meet or exceed the requirements laid out by iso 17025 or ansi z540. the engineering de rivation of each uncertainty analysis often encompasses 20 to 30 pages of complex equations, so having them embedded in the software saves your metrology staff many weeks of complex calculations and analysis. you can generate the report format of your choice, to comply with the requirements of the standard(s) you must meet. test results can be exported if you wish to maintain calibration records elsewhere. you only need to buy one license for each calibration station that is to be operated using our software. a licensed station can test all covered instrument models in any quantity for one year, and can test any new models/options released during the license period. such a seat license may not be used to provide commercial calibration services for agilent instruments. you may use this seat license as a self-maintainer calibrating equipment you own, or equipment that is an integral part of a government program in which you are participating. this includes contractors who are operating calibration laboratories in support of government or military organizations. however, you may not use this seat license to provide general commercial calibration service. the seat license must be renewed annually to maintain your access to the latest software revisions. for calibration labs providing commercial calibration services, we offer licenses to enable the calibration and/or adjustment of any covered instrument for a period of 90 days. when activated, these licenses are linked to a speci? c serial number and provide adequate time for testing, adjusting, repairing, and re-testing of that speci? c instrument. even if you are primarily a self-maintainer, your laboratory must make use of these universal 90-day licenses if/when you calibrate outside equipment for commercial purposes. as the user, you can choose whether to provide a commercial calibration or a z540/17025 calibration by choosing the corresponding 90-day license. product number description n7800a-u1s tme non-commercial seat license new install n7800a-u1r tme non-commercial seat license, renewal, (requires existing install) n7800a-u9c universal 90-day license, individual instrument, agilent commercial calibration n7800a-u9z universal 90-day license, individual instrument agilent ansi z540 and iso 17025 calibration n7800a-upz universal perpetual license, individual instrument, agilent ansi z540 and iso 17025 calibration if your instrument volume does not justify a seat license, or your operational model would be better addressed by long-term individual in- strument licenses, we offer perpetual licenses for individual instruments. they provide full ansi z540 and iso 17025 analysis and reporting, and can be used with any instrument model covered by our calibration software. you are entitled to use our software tools for the lifetime of the product, and to any new revisions of software that might be issued. the license can be installed on as many systems, in as many places as you wish, so there are no geographic or time restrictions. the only limitation is that the license is valid only for the speci? c instrument serial number used to activate the license.
4 most software and licensing transactions with agilent can be made quickly, online, at any time. licenses are activated through a simple interaction with an agilent web site. when a license is purchased, you receive a uniquely numbered certi? cate of entitlement that you must then activate (redeem) online. you may go to the agilent web site at agilent.com/? nd/softwarelicense at any time. using your order number and your certi? cate number, you activate a license by: 1) entering the mac address of the test station pc to be licensed, in the case of seat licenses, or 2) entering the model and serial number of an instrument to be licensed, in the case of individual perpetual or 90-day licenses. shortly afterward, you will receive an email with the electronic license ? le(s) attached. using the instructions sup- plied, you import those licenses into your tme system, and you are then ready to calibrate. new software packages are released continually. for the most current list of software cds, go to: agilent.com/? nd/calibrationsoftware you may order the cd-rom set containing the calibration software for the corresponding product family. each software cd-rom set includes test and adjustments for all products and options within that product family. for your convenience, every cd-rom set includes a copy of the agilent test management environment (tme) test executive. the test executive need only be loaded once (whether downloaded or loaded from cd). after that, it is necessary only to load the product family-speci? c application software. nothing has been done to disable older versions of agilent test software. if you are using older versions of our test software (without uncertainty analysis reporting), you may continue to use that software to calibrate the corresponding products. however, please note that the older versions cannot reside on the same pc as the newer, licensed version. attempting to have them on the same pc will result in ? le corruption that is dif? cult to correct. in addition, the older versions will not be updated for new products and options. all licenses include access to both performance veri? cation tests and to automatic adjustments (if required to make the instrument pass speci? cation). all licenses enable you to create full test result reports that can be exported to other systems. all self-maintainer seat licenses and the u9z 90-day licenses enable you to re- port all uncertainty calculations within the ? nal tabular report and graphs. software may be downloaded, or you can check for the latest software revisions online. visiting our web site at www.agilent. com/? nd/calibrationsoftware is an excellent way to examine the thorough help text included. many details, such as system con? guration, required test equipment (and alternatives), and test descriptions, are included in the help text. see page 7 for a collection of important web links pertaining to cal sw licensing. in addition, the calibration and adjustment application for each product family can be purchased on a cd (for a nominal charge) under the following product numbers, should you be unable or unwilling to download it free from the web: product number application n7805a e6601a wireless comms test set n7810a psa cal and adjust n7811a esa cal and adjust n7812a vsa (e4406a) cal and adjust n7813a csa cal and adjust n7814a x-series cal and adjust n7815a 896xx cal and adjust n7817a emi cal and adjust n7820a psg cal and adjust n7821a esg-c (e4428c, e4438c) cal and adjust n7822a mxg cal and adjust n7823a e8663b cal and adjust n7824a esg-b cal and adjust n7830a nfa cal and adjust n7831a n4010a cal and adjust n7832a p-series power meters cal n7833a n8300a wireless network test set n7840a pna cal n7845a upconverter synthetic instruments cal and adjust n7846a downconverter synthetic instrument cal n7851a u200x power sensor cal
5 combine the advantages you have as a self-maintainer with the experience that agilent has in high-performance metrology to achieve the optimum level of internal process control and external accreditation. your cost of calibration will be predictable from year-to-year, because all technical support, software updates, new products and options, and revision control are included in the price of a single renewable license. automated test times are far less than the manual equivalent. they are also guaranteed to return more consistent, repeatable results across all test conditions. if you normally require a z540 or 17025 calibration before you can put equipment into program use, you can now perform such a calibration on your own, rather than arranging for a special calibration from agilent or other service providers. your incoming inspection can be run as a z540 (or 17025) calibration. ansi z540 and iso 17025 uncer- tainty analyses are guaranteed to meet all requirements. if you are trying to achieve certi? cation, you can rely on the agilent uncertainty analyses to meet the strictest interpre- tations of z540/17025 requirements. the exact same analyses are used in our certi? ed service centers. all seat licenses include z540/17025 reporting capability. for the 90-day licenses, you can choose whether to pay a modest price premium for z540/17025 over the commercial calibration license price. agilent tme software already meets the requirements of z540.3. agilent calibration routines are available at the time of product/ option introduction. if you purchase a newly-released product or option, you can immediately verify its performance, rather than waiting 1-2 years for other software alternatives (i.e. creating your own test software or purchasing software from a third party). a knowingly maladjusted instrument was chosen to gather this data, to demonstrate how measurement uncertainty can affect the pass/fail conclusion associated with measurement data that never exceeds the actual speci? cation limit. indeterminate, in this case, should be taken to mean adjustment recommended, fig. 3 reports show measured value, speci? cation, and uncertainty
