Safety


WARNING   No operator serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified personnel. To
          prevent electrical shock, do not remove covers.




WARNING   For continued protection against fire hazard, replace line fuse only with same
          type and ratings (type 6.3A/250V). The use of other fuses or materials is
          prohibited.




CAUTION   Always use the three-prong ac power cord supplied with this instrument.
          Failure to ensure adequate earth grounding by not using this cord may cause
          instrument damage.

WARNING   This is a Safety Class 1 Product (provided with a protective earthing ground
          incorporated in the power cord.) The mains plug shall only be inserted in a
          socket outlet provided with a protective earth contact. Any interruption of the
          protective conductor inside or outside of the instrument is likely to make the
          instrument dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.




CAUTION   This instrument is designed for use in Installation Category II and Pollution
          Degree 2 per IEC 1010 and 664 respectively.

CAUTION   Ventilation Requirements:   When installing the instrument in a cabinet, the
          convection into and out of the instrument must not be restricted. The ambient
          temperature (outside the cabinet) must be less than the maximum operating
          temperature of the instrument by 4  C for every 100 watts dissipated in the
          cabinet. If the total power dissipated in the cabinet is greater than 800 watts,
          then forced convection must be used.
WARNING   If this instrument is not used as specified, the protection provided by the
          equipment could be impaired. This instrument must be used in a normal
          condition (in which all means for protection are intact) only.




                                                                                            iii
Surveillance with the HP 71910A




The HP 71910A Wide-Bandwidth Surveillance Receiver provides both signal search and signal
collection capability from 100 Hz to 26.5 GHz. It is optimized for surveillance and signal
monitoring applications. The HP 71910A can be operated in either of the following two
instrument modes:
  Spectrum analyzer operation for signal searches
     Maximum resolution BW    :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::   3 MHz
  Wide-bandwidth receiver operation for signal collection
     IF BW  :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::   10 to 100 MHz


Note           When you use the wide-bandwidth surveillance receiver, remember that in
               spectrum analyzer mode the maximum resolution bandwidth is 3 MHz; it is
               not a 100 MHz bandwidth spectrum analyzer.

The receiver's IF and video outputs can be examined by oscilloscopes, demodulators,
digitizers, FFT baseband analyzers, and other instruments.

                                      HP 71910A Option 011



When rst turned on, the wide-bandwidth surveillance receiver operates as a spectrum
analyzer. This allows you to view signals across a large frequency range. Once you've located
a signal, switch to the xed-tuned receiver mode to downconvert the signal.
The downconverted signal is available at the rear panel for processing and analyzing by
external devices. The Option 011 version of the instrument is primarily used as a collection
receiver; it has very limited spectrum analyzer capability due to linear detection and 3 MHz
maximum peak detection bandwidth. (Option 013 adds an HP 70902A to provide a more
complete spectrum analyzer.)
IF outputs are available at the rear panel

In receiver mode, the downconverted signal is available at the instrument's rear panel. The
standard rear-panel output is centered at 321.4 MHz. Option 001 and 002 instruments provide
additional 70 MHz and 140 MHz IF signals respectively. Refer to Chapter 3 for examples of
processing these signals.




                                                                                                v
Demodulated outputs are available at the front panel

The front-panel VIDEO connector provides AM and pulse demodulation. Option 004 provides
additional I/Q outputs and Option 005 provides an additional FM output. Refer to Chapter 3
for examples of processing these signals.




Option 004 instruments (together with an external oscilloscope in XY mode), provide a
convenient method of identifying modulation formats such as 8 PSK, 16 QAM, and 64 QAM.
With typical receivers, the constellations \spin" due to the oset in frequency between the
receiver and the signal. This makes format identication very dicult. But, because of the
wide-bandwidth surveillance receiver's 1 Hz frequency tuning, this spinning movement can be
slowed to the point where it is almost stopped.

Note           The following installation procedure applies to both the HP 71910A wide
               bandwidth surveillance receiver and the HP 71910P wide bandwidth
               surveillance receiver. In a \P" system, the HP 70207A PC Display for MMS
               replaces the HP 70004A color display.
               There are no specication changes between the \P" and \A" systems, only
               module placement and rear-panel cabling are dierent.
               Refer to the HP 70207A User's Guide for complete installation instructions of
               the HP 70207A PC Display for MMS, the MSIB interface card, and the MSIB
               Y-cable that is used with a \P" system.




                                                                              Getting Started    1-1
To install the receiver

 1. Inspect the shipping container or cushioning material for damage.
      If there is damage or a defect, save the packing materials, le a claim with the carrier,
      then contact the nearest Hewlett-Packard sales and service oce for immediate repair
      or replacement.
 2. Make sure the instrument's line-voltage selectors are set to the same voltage as the power
    source.




CAUTION         Before turning the instrument on, be sure the LINE VOLTAGE SELECTOR is set
                to the correct voltage for the power source. Failure to do this may cause
                damage (a blown fuse) to the system when the power cable is plugged in.

Note            Option 400 instruments for 400 Hz operation come with an external in-line
                isolation transformer for use with the HP 70001A mainframe. The isolation
                transformer protects the user from shock hazard. The in-line isolation
                transformer must be removed for 60 Hz power-source operation. Failure to
                remove the in-line transformer may result in a blown fuse. The HP 70004A
                display/mainframe does not require an option to operate on 400 Hz.

WARNING         Do not operate a 400 Hz option receiver on a 400 Hz power line without the
                attached in-line isolation transformer for the HP 70001A mainframe. Failure to
                follow this precaution can result in personal injury.
