Introduction
This procedure can be used to retrofit External Mixing (Option AYZ) into an E4407B spectrum analyzer.
To ensure that this newly installed option is functioning properly, the procedure that follows includes the
requirement of performing certain adjustments and performance verification tests. However, the completion
of these tests does not guarantee that the instrument meets all advertised specifications.
Software is required to perform the required adjustments, and can be used to automate the performance
verification testing. Information on how to obtain this software can be found at:
www.agilent.com/find/calibrationsoftware
While Agilent does recommend that a full calibration be performed after the installation of this upgrade, the
end user must ultimately determine whether they want this service or not. If a full calibration is required,
arrangements regarding the level of calibration must be made between the end user and the calibration
provider.

Procedure
Verify A8A1 3 GHz RF Assembly Part Number
1. Turn on the analyzer and wait for the initial adjustments to complete.
2. Press System, More, Show Hdwr. This displays the Show Hardware screen, which lists the part number and
serial number of most of the installed board assemblies.
3. Locate the part number of the “50Ω3 GHz Input” assembly.
4. If the part number of the 50Ω3 GHz Input assembly is E440360002 or lower, the A8A1 3 GHz RF
assembly must be replaced. If the analyzer does not have the High Stability Frequency Reference,
Option 1D5, order E4403-60073. If the analyzer does have Option 1D5, order E4403-60074.
WARNING Before you disassemble the instrument, turn the power switch OFF and unplug the
instrument. Failure to unplug the instrument can result in personal injury.
CAUTION Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or destroy electronic components. All work on
electronic assemblies should be performed at a static-safe workstation. Refer to the
documentation that pertains to your instrument for information about static-safe workstations
and ordering static-safe accessories.

A1 Front Frame Assembly
CAUTION Use ESD precautions when performing this replacement procedure.
Extension
The A1 front frame assembly can be extended from the instrument without detaching any connections.
1. Refer to Figure 3. Remove the two screws (1), on the bottom side of the instrument, that secure the front
frame to the RF assembly.
Figure 3 A1 Front Frame Assembly Removal
2. Place the instrument with the top side facing up and remove the remaining two screws (2) that secure the
front frame subpanel to the chassis.
3. Slide the front frame forward until it catches on the tabs on the sides of the chassis.

Removal
To completely remove the A1 front frame assembly, complete the “Extension” procedure, then continue with
the following steps:
1. Refer to Figure 4. Disconnect the ribbon cable (1) from the A1A1 front panel interface board. Analyzers
with Option B7B will have a second ribbon cable connecting to A1A1. Disconnect the second ribbon cable if
present.
