This procedure provides the steps necessary to perform ALC Slope
calibration. The ALC Slope is calibrated to adjust for decreasing out-
put power-vs-output frequency in full band analog sweep.
Equipment
Setup Connect the equipment, shown in Figure 4-7, as fol-
lows:
1. Interface the PC to the 683XXB by performing
the initial setup procedure, pages 4-7 to 4-12.
2. Using the Auxiliary I/O cable, connect the
683XXB rear panel AUX I/O connector to the 562
Network Analyzer AUX I/O connector.
3. Using the GPIB cable, connect the 562 Network
Analyzer DEDICATEDGPIB connector to the
683XXB IEEE-488 GPIB connector.
4. Connect the RF Detector to the 562 Network
Analyzer Channel AInput connector.
5. Connect the 683XXB RF OUTPUT connector to
the RF Detector via a 10 dB Attenuator.
