6Installation Note E8362-90004
Installation Procedure for the Upgrade Kit
The network analyzer must be in proper working condition prior to installing this option. Any
necessary repairs must be made before proceeding with this installation.
WARNING This installation requires the removal of the analyzer’s protective outer
covers. The analyzer must be powered down and disconnected from the
mains supply before performing this procedure.
Electrostatic Discharge Protection
Protection against electrostatic discharge (ESD) is essential while removing or connecting
cables or assemblies within the network analyzer.
Static electricity can build up on your body and can easily damage sensitive internal circuit
elements when discharged. Static discharges too small to be felt can cause permanent
damage. To prevent damage to the instrument:
•always wear a grounded wrist strap having a 1 MΩresistor in series with it when handling
components and assemblies.
•always use a grounded, conductive table mat while working on the instrument.
•always wear a heel strap when working in an area with a conductive floor. If you are
uncertain about the conductivity of your floor, wear a heel strap.
Figure 1 shows a typical ESD protection setup using a grounded mat and wrist strap. Refer to
“Tools Required for the Installation” on page 7 for part numbers.

Equipment Required for Post-Installation Adjustments
Step 1. Verify the Model, Serial, and Option Numbers of the Analyzer
Refer to the License Key Certificate supplied with the kit:
• Verify that the analyzer’s model and serial numbers match those on the certificate.
• Verify that the option number on the certificate matches the option described by this
installation note.
If the model, serial, or option number do not match the expected results, you will not be able
to install the option. If this is the case, contact Agilent for assistance. Refer to “Getting
Assistance from Agilent” on page 2.

Step 2. Remove the Outer Cover
CAUTION This procedure is best performed with the analyzer resting on its front
handles in the vertical position. Do not place the analyzer on its front panel
without the handles. This will damage the front panel assemblies.
1. Disconnect the power cord (if it has not already been disconnected).
2. Using a T-20 TORX driver, remove the strap handles (item ①) by loosening the screws
(item ②) on both ends until the handle is free of the analyzer.
3. Using a T-20 TORX driver, remove the four rear panel feet (item ③) by removing the center
screws (item ④).
4. Slide the four bottom feet (item ⑤) off the cover.
5. Slide the cover off of the frame.

Step 3. Remove the Inner Cover
1. Place the analyzer top-side up on a flat surface.
2. Using a T-10 TORX driver, remove the eleven screws (item ①).
3. Lift off the cover.
