3. Receiver Minimum R Channel Level
cIf the analyzer still doesn’t phase lock, continue increasing the source output 
power until phase lock is achieved.
dWrite the marker value in the “Performance Test Record”.
•Repeat Step 4 through Step 6 for the other CW frequencies listed in the “Per-
formance Test Record”.
In Case of 
Difficulty 
WARNING These servicing instructions are for use by qualified personnel only. 
To avoid electrical shock, do not perform any servicing unless you  are 
qualified to do so.
WARNING The opening of covers or removal of parts is likely to expose 
dangerous voltages. Disconnect the instrument from all voltage 
sources while it is being opened.
WARNING The power cord is connected to i nternal capacitors that may remain 
live for five seconds after disconnecting the plug from its power 
supply.
1Check the flexible RF cable between the R sampler assembly and the A11 
phase lock assembly. Make sure it is connected between A11J1 (PL IF IN) and 
1st IF Out. 
2Using an ohmmeter, verify that the RF cable is not open. In addition, examine 
both the cable connectors - measure the resistance between the cable center 
pin and the cable connector. The ohmmeter should display a high resistance 
reading. 
3Check the R sampler by substituting it with the A sampler and rerun the test. 
aMove cable W8 to the A sampler. 
bUse a 10 dB attenuator between the RF OUT and input A.
cRepeat the test.
dSelect the A sampler by pressing MEAS, INPUT PORTS, A in Step 2.
eIf the test fails, replace the A11 assembly.
4Verify that the high/low band adjustments are still within specifications. For 
more information on how to perform this task, refer to the “High/Low Band 
Transition Adjustment”, located in the “Adjustments and Correction 
Constants” chapter in the Agilent 8753D Option 011 Service Guide.
