Test Equipment

Table 3-l summarizes the equipment required to run the Frequency Response Adjustment procedure. The adjustment can use various model numbers of a particular equipment type. Information about selecting the equipment model number you want to use is provided in “Setting HP-IB Addresses” in this chapter under “Frequency Response Adjustment Software.”

Note

The validity of the Frequency Response Adjustment depends in part on

 

required test equipment measurement accuracy. Verify proper calibration of

 

test equipment before adjusting the analyzer with the software.
