With the Help system on your PC, you can read about the analyzer while away from it. You can also Copy and Paste programming code from this Help system directly into your programming environment.
The Help file is located on your analyzer hard-drive at C:\Program Files (x86)\Keysight\Network Analyzer\Help\<filename>.chm. If both the analyzer and PC are connected to LAN, you can map a drive and copy the file directly.
The Help system can be launched in the following ways:
From the Help drop-down menu.
From Dialog Box Help buttons.

.
The following rules apply for using full-text search:
Searches are not case-sensitive.
You can search for any combination of letters (a-z) and numbers (0-9).
Punctuation marks (period, colon, semicolon, comma, and hyphen) are ignored during a search.
You can group the words of your search using double quotes or parentheses. Examples: "response calibration" or (response calibration). This requirement makes it impossible to search for quotation marks.
Use Wildcard expressions:
To search for one undefined character use a question mark (?). For example, searching for cal? will find calc and calf.
To search for more than one undefined character use an asterisk (*). Searching for Cal* will find calibration and calculate.
Use Boolean operators to define a relationship between two or more search words.
