1 Introduction
12 U2000 Series Operating and Service Guide
System Requirements
The U2000 Series USB power sensor is able to display power measurements on
a PC or other Agilent instruments without the need for a separate power
meter. The USB power sensor is a combination of power meter and power
sensor, all in a compact sensor casing. It provides plug- and- play connectivity
which enables fast connection between the USB power sensors and a PC.
Prior to using the U2000 Series USB power sensors, please ensure that the
following minimum power sensor requirements are met:
• PC or any device that has USB host capability
• Agilent IO Libraries Suite 14.2 or above, users are encouraged to obtain the
latest version of Agilent Libraries Suite for better performance
• Optional: Agilent N1918A Power Analysis Manager (Basic Power Panel is
bundled with the purchase of the U2000 Series USB power sensors, while
users can also obtain the advanced Power Analyzer which is an optional
licensed software with additional features and capabilities)
*
• The U2000 Series can also be programmed using remote programming
software such as Agilent VEE, LabVIEW, and Microsoft® Visual Basics.
Checking the Power Sensor Firmware
There are two ways that can be used to check the firmware revision of the
power sensor:
Agilent IO Libraries Suite 14.2
• By using the Agilent IO Libraries Suite version 14.2 or above, you can check
the model code, serial number, firmware revision, and USB address. The
VISA address is the USB address (see below).
* Refer to the N1918A Power Analysis Manager Data Sheet, 5989-6612EN for more information on
the features of the Power Panel and Power Analyzer.
