2Press PRESET, MENU, CW FREQ. 
3Press 30, k/m and write the frequency counter reading on the “Performance 
Test Record.” 
4Repeat Step 3 for each instrument frequency listed in the “Performance Test 
Record.” 
In Case of 
Difficulty 
1If any measured frequency is close to the specification limits, check the time 
base accuracy of the counter used. 
2If the analyzer fails by a significant margin at all frequencies (especially if the 
deviation increases with frequency), the master time base probably needs 
adjustment. In this case, refer to the Agilent8753D Service Guide. The 
“Fractional-N Frequency Range Adjustment” also affects freq uency accuracy.
