Measurement
Technique Themeasurements of the key system performance parameters are per-
formed using the ANRITSU 37XXX TestSoftware, PN: 2300-178.
NOTE
The Standard Conditions and Special Precautions de-
scribed in paragraph 4-2 should be observed when per-
forming these measurements.
The software will use the following standards to determine system per-
formance values:
qAssurance Air Line Set
qOffset Termination
qFrequency Counter
qPower Meter
Equipment required:
37XXX TestSoftware (ANRITSU PN: 2300-178)
External computer/controller; refer to Table 1-1 located on page 1-9.
GPIB cable (ANRITSU PN: 2100-2), or equivalent
Measurement Procedure:
Step 1. Refer to file “Readme.txt” of the distribution disk for in-
formation regarding setup of the computer/controller.
Step 2. Using the GPIB cable, connect the external computer/con-
troller to the the 373XXAIEEE 488.2 GPIB rear panel con-
nector.
Step 3. Program may be run from floppy disk or copied to any
folder in the computer and run from there.
Step 4. Follow the directions displayed on the computer screen to
perform all tests.
NOTE
Some tests require that the first test selected must be the
12-TermCalibration. The software will guide you through
this calibration.
If any tests fail, refer to the Troubleshootingand Help se-
lections of the TestSoftware menu for assistance.
