Appendix A

 

Test Records

A-1INTRODUCTION

This appendix provides test records for recording the results of the

 

Performance Verification tests (Chapter 3) and the Calibration proce-

 

dures (Chapter 4). They jointly provide the means for maintaining an

 

accurate and complete record of instrument performance. Test records

 

are provided for all models of the Series 682XXB/683XXB Synthesized

 

Signal Generators. Table A-1provides the location of each test record

 

in this appendix.

 

Each test record has been customized to cover a particular 682XXB/

 

683XXB model. It contains specific references to frequency parameters

 

and power levels that are applicable only to that instrument model

 

and its available options.

 

We recommend that you make a copy of these pages each time the test

 

procedures are performed. By dating each Test Record copy, a detailed

 

history of instrument performance can be accumulated.
