2. Adjust the Switched Filter Limiter DAC for each
of the frequency bands as follows:
a. At the $prompt on the PC display,type:
calterm 145 and press <ENTER>.
b. On the 562 Network Analyzer, set the Resolu-
tion to 0.2 dB and adjust the offset to center
the top of the triangle waveform on the display.
c. Observe the displayed waveform to determine
whether the Shaper Amplifier is being driven
to saturation. This is indicated by a dip in the
top of the triangle waveform (Figure 4-4).
If the displayed waveform indicates there is no
saturation, proceed to step e. If there is a dip
in the waveform, go to step d.
d. On the computer keyboard, use 8, 9, or 0 to
decrement the value of the DAC’ssetting until
the top of the triangle waveform starts to be-
come rounded (Shaper Amplifier is no longer
being driven to saturation). Continue decre-
menting until the top of the waveform is 0.3 dB
below this point.
e. Press Qon the keyboard to go to the next fre-
quency band.
f. Repeat steps b thru e until the DAC has been
checked and adjusted for all frequency bands.
g. Press Qon the keyboard to exit the program.
(The $prompt will appear on the screen.)
h. Record step completion on the TestRecord.
Shaper DAC
Adjustment For Models 682XXB with Firmware Versions
1.01 to 2.37; Models 683XXB with Firmware
Versions1.01 to 2.44; Models 682X5B with
Firmware Versions1.00 to 1.26; and Models
683X5B with Firmware Versions1.00 to 1.30.
The following steps in the procedure lets you adjust
the Switched Filter Shaper DAC which controls the
gain of the Switched Filter Shaper Amplifier.Each
frequency band will be scanned for the minimum
unleveled power point before adjustment of the
shaper DAC.
1. Set up the 562 Network Analyzer as follows:
a. Press the System Menu key.
b. From the System Menu display, select RESET.
