Hp 859x Gpib Controller

Spectrum Analyzer Control Software for HP/Agilent 8590/8593E

This Windows application is designed to remotely control and acquire data from the HP/Agilent 8590E series (including the 8593E) via NI GPIB interface. The software displays the spectrum in real time and allows you to adjust all key parameters directly from your PC – such as center frequency, start/stop frequency, span, RBW/VBW, sweep time, reference level, dB/div, and attenuation.

 

Features:

  • Live spectrum graph with 401 points from the analyzer.

  • Quick access to measurement settings through buttons and text fields.

  • Export measurements and plots to PNG with all text and markers included.

  • Marker and peak functions directly on the graph.

  • Preset/AUTO for quick restore of instrument default settings.

  • Requires a National Instruments (NI) GPIB adapter for communication.

One GPIB-USB-HS clone this has been found to work fine.

This software makes it easy to document, analyze, and save spectrum measurements without relying on the analyzer’s built-in card system or photos of the display.
