Keysight Option 222 to 422 4-Port Capability Upgrade Kit

Upgrade Kit for N5241B/42B/49B Microwave Network Analyzers Installation Note Description of the Upgrade The following may apply to your "B" model PNA: In June 2013, the N5241A/AS and N5242A/AS analyzers underwent significant hardware changes. Some components that have 2.4 mm connectors (bias tees, couplers, and some semi-rigid cables) were replaced with components that have 3.5 mm connectors. If your analyzer’s serial number prefix is MY/SG/US5310 and below: Your analyzer was originally shipped with 2.4 mm components. Bias tees with 2.4 mm connectors are no longer available, so the bias tees and connecting cables included in this kit have 3.5 mm connectors. Since they are interconnected, the 2.4 mm couplers and connecting cables in your analyzer must be replaced with the new 3.5 mm items included in this kit. If your analyzer’s serial number prefix is MY/SG/US5321 and above: Your analyzer was shipped with 3.5 mm components, so it is not necessary to replace the couplers and connecting cables. These items are included in this kit, but will not be used for your upgrade. Set them aside for possible use in the future. Be very careful to use the appropriate hardware in your analyzer. Using the wrong hardware can ruin analyzer components, resulting in additional customer costs. If you had an A model PNA-X with Option 219/419 with Option H85 that was upgraded to a B model, please refer to Options 217/417. If you had an A model PNA-X with Option 224/423 with Option H85 that was upgraded to a B model then refer to Option 222/422.

16 Installation Procedure for the Upgrade Refer to Figure 2 in this document for the remainder of this step. 4. If the PNA does not include Option 029, follow all eleven instructions shown in Figure 2. If the PNA does include Option 029, omit instruction 2 and the unnumbered instruction to install a splitter - it is already installed. Figure 2 A23 and A24 Mixer Brick Assembly Graphics in this document such as Figure 2 use very brief text to instruct where to connect a cable. For example, text that reads “N5242-60018 IFMUX P201 - BRK1 B” means to connect the N5242-60018 gray flexible cable at the A20 IF MUX board connector P201 and at A23 Mixer Brick 1 connector B.

22 Installation Procedure for the Upgrade Step 15. Assemble the A29 - A32 Test Port Coupler Assemblies 1. Remove the A29 test port 1 coupler and A32 test port 2 coupler from the PNA. For instructions, click the Chapter 7 bookmark, “Removing and Replacing the A29 - A32 Test Port Couplers” in the PDF Service Guide1. 2. If your analyzer’s serial number prefix is MY/SG/US5321 and above: Using pliers, remove the adhesive bumper on the A29 test port 1 coupler and on the A32 test port 2 coupler. 3. If your analyzer’s serial number prefix is MY/SG/US5310 and below: Discard the test port couplers you just removed from the PNA. These old couplers have 2.4 mm connectors and must be replaced with the new couplers (3.5 mm connectors) included in the kit. 4. Follow the two instructions shown in Figure 8. New parts are listed in Table 1 on page 9 of this document. Figure 8 A29 - A32 Test Port Coupler Assembly 1. See “Downloading the Online PNA Service Guide” on page 7.

Installation Procedure for the Upgrade Step 16.Install the LED Boards and Test Port Coupler Assemblies to the Test Set Front Plate 1. Remove two screws from each LED board and remove the boards from the 2-port test set front plate of the PNA. 2. If your analyzer’s serial number is MY/SG/US5321 and above: Remove the bulkhead connectors from the 2-port test set front plate of the PNA. They will be installed later in the 4-port test set front plate. 3. Remove the 2-port test set front plate from the test set deck. The bulkhead connectors may be discarded since they are not used in a 4-port configuration. 4. Follow the two instructions shown in Figure 9.

24 Installation Procedure for the Upgrade Step 17.Install the Bulkhead Connectors in the Test Set Front Plate Refer to Figure 10 for this procedure. New parts are listed in Table 1 on page 9. 1. If your analyzer’s serial number is MY/SG/US5321 and above: Locate the bulkhead connectors you removed earlier from the 2-port test set front plate of the PNA. Use these and the new bulkhead connectors included in the kit for the remainder of this step. 2. From the back side of the test set front plate, insert a bulkhead connector into a hole in the plate. 3. Install 1x washer and 1x nut. Hand tighten nut and ensure bulkhead connector hexagon nut, on the back side of test set front plate, is aligned to the test set subpanel hexagon indent. 4. Repeat previous two steps for the remaining bulkhead connectors. 5. Torque nuts, on the front side of test set front plate, to 21 in-lbs. Figure 10 Bulkhead Connectors Installation

Incorrect connections can destroy components, resulting in additional customer costs. Be careful not to damage the center pins of the semirigid cables. Some flexing of the cables may be necessary but do not over-bend them. Use a 5/16-in torque wrench set to 10 in-lbs on all cable connections except the front and rear panel bulkhead connectors. On these, use a 9 mm nutsetter or open end torque wrench set to 21 in-lb. Cables that are to be reinstalled are designated with “reuse.” Part numbers in a normal weight font are for analyzers with serial numbers MY/SG/US5310 and below. Part numbers in a bold weight font are for analyzers with serial numbers MY/SG/US5321 and above. 1. See “Downloading the Online PNA Service Guide” on page 7.

Installation Procedure for the Upgrade Option Enable Procedure 1. Locate the email(s) from Keysight which contain license file attachments. These emails are a result of “Step 1. Obtain a Keyword and Verify the Information” on page 13. 2. Copy the license file(s) from the email(s) to the root directory of the USB flash drive. More than one license file may be copied to the USB flash drive. 3. Insert the USB flash drive into the PNA’s USB drive slot. 4. The instrument automatically reads the license file(s) from the USB flash drive, validates the file(s), and installs the option(s). Generally, warnings or error messages may be ignored. 5. Wait >1 minute for your Option to be installed. The instrument will not prompt you when the upgrade has been completed. 6. The PNA application automatically restarts after the option installation has been completed. Optional: Cycle power on the instrument to activate the newly installed option upgrade(s). (Press the power button once to power down the instrument.) Option Verification Procedure Once the analyzer has restarted and or the Network Analyzer program is again running: 1.

40 Installation Procedure for the Upgrade — receiver characterization — receiver adjustment — IF Response adjustment (Option S93090xA, S93093A, or S93094A Only) — noise figure adjustment (Option 029 with option S93029A Only) These adjustments are described in the PNA Service Guide and in the PNA on-line HELP. A list of equipment required to perform these adjustments is also found in the service guide. To view this service guide information, click the Chapter 3 bookmark “Tests and Adjustments” in the PDF Service Guide1. After the specified adjustments have been performed, the analyzer should operate and phase lock over its entire frequency range. Operator’s Check These adjustments are described in the PNA Service Guide and in the PNA on-line HELP. A list of equipment required to perform these adjustments is also found in the service guide. Perform the Operator’s Check to test the basic functionality of the analyzer. For instructions, click the Chapter 3 bookmark “Tests and Adjustments” in the PDF Service Guide1. If you experience difficulty with the basic functioning of the analyzer, contact Keysight. Refer to “Contacting Keysight” on page 5. Calibration Although the analyzer functions, its performance relative to its specifications has not been verified. It is recommended that a full instrument calibration be performed using the analyzer’s internal performance test software. To view information on the performance test software, click the Chapter 3 bookmark “Tests and Adjustments” in the PDF Service Guide1. Step 34. Prepare the PNA for the User 1. If necessary, reinstall front jumper cables. 2. Install the cable guards, pushing them over the front jumper cables until the cushioning material touches the front panel of the PNA. 3.
