Spectrum Analyzer (continued)
Figure 11
Tracking Generator or Independent Signal Source
The independent source or tracking generator is included with either spectrum analyzer option. The source can be used in
continuous wave (CW) or stimulus/response (S/R) mode. In CW mode, the source frequency is independent of the receiver
frequency. The source can be tuned to a frequency that is different from the receiver. In stimulus/response mode, the
source operates the same as a traditional tracking generator - the receiver tracks the source.
