Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor, inside or
outside the instrument, or disconnection of the protective earth terminal
can result in personal injury.
There are many points in the instrument which can, if contacted, cause
personal injury. Be extremely careful.
Warning
Any adjustments or service procedures that require operation of the
instrument with protective covers removed should be performed only by
trained service personnel.
Caution Before this instrument is switched on, make sure its primary power circuitry

If you have problems with installation
This chapter contains information to help identify and resolve problems that may occur with
the installation of your HP 70909A or HP 70910A RF section.
Symptoms to various problems are listed at the top of each page.
Most symptoms have a brief description or explanation to help provide more insight into
their cause. A possible cause for the symptom and a checklist of possible solutions are then
presented. Use this checklist as an aid to correct the problem.
If a problem cannot be resolved, you can return the equipment to Hewlett-Packard for
servicing. Instructions for returning your RF section to Hewlett-Packard for servicing are
provided in \Before calling or returning your RF section for service".
If you have problems with installation 2-1
If the system's power-on self test fails
Each time the HP 70000 Series modular spectrum analyzer system is turned on, the following
actions take place:
1. The system runs through an initializing routine (power-on self test) during which the
front-panel STATUS LEDs on each module ash on momentarily and then turn o again.
2. If the power-on self test passes, the MEASURE LED on the LO module starts blinking on
and o, being triggered by the system sweep, and the ACT LED on each active module's
front-panel is turned on.
If this sequence of events does not occur, then one or more of the modules in the system is not
functioning properly.
To solve this problem:
Check that the RF section is powered on.
Check that the HP 70000 Series modular spectrum analyzer system display and mainframe
are plugged into the proper ac line voltage.
Check that the line socket has ac line voltage.
Check that the line voltage selector switch is set to the correct voltage for the ac line voltage
being used.
The line voltage selector switch is located on the left side of the HP 70004A display or on the
bottom of the HP 70001A mainframe.
Figure 2-1. Line Voltage Selector
Check the line fuse on the display or the mainframe to ensure that it is not damaged.
The line fuse is located inside the power-cord receptacle housing on the rear of the display
and mainframe. Also included in this housing is a spare fuse. The fuse is a 5 by 20 mm fuse
rated at 6.3 A, 250 V (HP part number 2110-0703). This line fuse can be used with both
120 V and 230 V line voltage.
Figure 2-2. Line Fuse Removal and Replacement
2-2 If you have problems with installation
If necessary, obtain HP service. (Refer to \If you require additional technical resources".)
If you have problems with installation 2-3
If your RF section is powered on but not responding correctly
If your RF section is powered on but not responding correctly, then something may be wrong
with the system setup.
To solve this problem:
Perform the checks in the procedure \If the system's power-on self test fails".
Check that other equipment, cables, and connectors are connected and operating correctly.
Check the HP 70000 Series modular spectrum analyzer system display for error messages.
If necessary, obtain HP service. (Refer to \If you require additional technical resources".)
2-4 If you have problems with installation
If the STATUS ERR indicator LED on your new RF section is
ashing
The HP 70909A or HP 70910A RF section communicates with the HP 70000 Series modular
spectrum analyzer system over the HP-MSIB.
If the STATUS ERR indicator LED, located on the RF section's front panel, is ashing at a 1 Hz
rate, the module cannot communicate over the HP-MSIB.
To solve this problem:
Remove the RF section and reinstall it using the following steps:
1. Switch o the system's ac line power
2. Disconnect the RF section's rear panel cables
3. Remove the RF section from the system
4. Switch on the system's ac line power and check that no error LEDs are ashing on the
other system modules
5. If all other modules are working correctly, use the steps outlined in Chapter 1 to reinstall
the RF section.
Check that the HP-MSIB address is set correctly. (Refer to \Step 5. Check or set the
HP-MSIB address on your new RF section" in Chapter 1.)
If necessary, obtain HP service. (Refer to \If you require additional technical resources".)
If you have problems with installation 2-5
If more than one module's error indicator is ashing
The HP 70909A or HP 70910A RF section communicates with the HP 70000 Series modular
spectrum analyzer system over the HP-MSIB.
When the error indicator LED on a module is ashing at a 1 Hz rate, then that module is not
communicating over the HP-MSIB.
To solve this problem:
Check that the HP-MSIB address is set correctly. (Refer to \Step 5. Check or set the
HP-MSIB address on your new RF section" in Chapter 1.)
If two separate modules, are set to the same HP-MSIB address, this problem will occur.
Remove all modules and reinstall them one at a time until a module that causes the ERR LED
to ash is found.
Turn the power on each time after a module is removed to determine if the problem has
been solved.
If necessary, obtain HP service. (Refer to \If you require additional technical resources".)
2-6 If you have problems with installation
If hardware errors messages occur
Hardware errors are generated when a module in the HP 70000 Series modular spectrum
analyzer system is not working properly. These errors can occur at any time. Hardware
errors range from 7000|7999. (Refer to the HP 70909A and HP 70910A Service Guide for
information about other error messages.)
One or more of the following hardware error messages may appear on your system display:

information.
3. If necessary, obtain HP service. (Refer to \If you require additional technical
resources".)
7003 2nd LO unlocked
This hardware error occurs when the signal of the 2nd local oscillator's phase-locked
loop circuitry is not phase-locked to the 300 MHz reference signal.
To solve this problem:
1. Check the rear-panel 300 MHz IN connection.
2. Refer to the HP 70909A and HP 70910A Service Guide for troubleshooting
information.
3. If necessary, obtain HP service. (Refer to \If you require additional technical

2-10 If you have problems with installation
Returning your equipment for service
If you have completed the steps outlined in the section titled \Before calling or returning your
RF section for service", use the following procedure to return your HP 70909A RF section or
HP 70910A RF section to Hewlett-Packard for service:
1. Fill out a service tag (available at the end of this installation guide) and attach it to the
instrument. Please be as speci c as possible about the nature of the problem. Send a copy
of any or all of the following information:
any error messages that appeared on the HP 70000 Series modular spectrum analyzer
system display
a completed Performance Test record
any other speci c data on the performance of the HP 70909A RF section or HP 70910A RF
section
Caution Damage can result if the original packaging materials are not used. Packaging
materials should be anti-static and should cushion the RF section on all sides.
Never use styrene pellets in any shape as packaging materials. They do not
adequately cushion the instrument or prevent it from moving in the shipping
container. Styrene pellets can also cause equipment damage by generating
static electricity or by lodging in fan motors.
2. Place the RF section in its original packaging materials (see Table 2-2).
If the original packaging materials are not available, you can contact a Hewlett-Packard
sales and service oce to obtain information on packaging materials or you may use an
alternative packing material referred to as \bubble-pack". One of the companies that makes
bubble-pack is Sealed Air Corportation of Commerce, California, 90001.
3. Surround the RF section with at least 3 to 4 inches of its original packing material or
bubble-pack to prevent the RF section from moving in its shipping container.
4. Place the RF section, after wrapping it with packing material, in its original shipping
container or a strong shipping container that
is made of double-walled corrugated cardboard with 159 kg (350 lb) bursting strength.
The shipping container must be both large enough and strong enough to accommodate
an RF section and allow at least 3 to 4 inches on all sides of the RF section for packing
material.
5. Seal the shipping container securely with strong nylon adhesive tape.
6. Mark the shipping container \FRAGILE, HANDLE WITH CARE" to help ensure careful
handling.
7. Retain copies of all shipping papers.
