What exactly are you looking for?

1. Information on how to operate the spectrum analyzer.
2. Information on how to perform this task using data you have read into LV.

Basically, I'm able to send the signal and receive it through this Spectrum Analyzer and I can set the center freq, span, attenuator level, etc..., but how do I do the Peak Search of the Carrier tone or/and the power Level that I'm transmitting??

There's SubVI on the instrument's driver that says " Peak Search", which has two Control inputs, one is "Peak Excursion" and the other is "Maker Threshold". What should I set these functions to???

Again, it's a HP 8565E!

I am not familier with that particular instrument, but if you look up the commands that the "Peak Search" VI is using in the manual, it will surely explain it...
