6On the Agilent 8902A, press the blue shift key and SET REF. 
7On the Agilent 8702D Option 011: 
aPress CAL, CALIBRATE MENU, RESPONSE, THRU. 
bAfter the analyzer finishes the measurement, press DONE: RESPONSE. 
cPress SAVE/RECALL, SAVE STATE. 
dPress MARKER FCTN, MARKER MODE MENU, STATS ON. 
8Set the Agilent 8496A to 0 dB. 
9On the Agilent 8702D Option 011, press MENU, TRIGGER MENU, SINGLE. 
10 Write the mean value (which appears on the analyzer’s display) in the 
"Receiver Channel A" column of the "Performance Test Record." 
11 Write the Agilent 8902A readout in the "8902A" column of the "Performance 
Test Record."

Channel B Magnitude Dynamic Accuracy 
16 Set the Agilent 8496A to 20 dB. 
17 On the Agilent 8702D Option 011, press CONTINUOUS,  MEAS, INPUT PORTS, B. 
NOTE 
Ignore the UNCAL displayed on the Agilent8902A. This indicates  that you are making 
an approximate power level measurement. However, this is not a concern because you 
will be making a relative power measurement. 
NOTE 
When the Agilent8902A displays t he "RECAL" annunciation, press CALIBRATE.
