Introduction
This chapter gives a brief overview of the Anritsu Field Master Pro pulse analyzer and is intended to assist you in setting up a pulse measurement. Refer to Instrument Overview and Spectrum Analyzer Measurementsas a starting point for getting familiar with the instrument and making basic measurement setups. This chapter describes instrument setup, including selecting the analyzer and setting up frequency, bandwidth, amplitude, and pulse references for making pulse measurements. For a detailed description of how the pulse measurements are calculated, refer to Pulse Measurements. After measurements are taken, refer to File Management and Saving and Recalling Measurements for a description of saving, recalling, and managing measurement files. For detailed information about other specific measurements, refer to the appropriate chapter in this guide.
