Figure 1-19. Creating a User Flatness Array

For this example, refer to menu map 5, POWER.

1.The equipment setup shown in Figure 1-19 assumes that if your setup has an external leveling configuration, the steps necessary to correctly level have been followed. If you have questions about external leveling refer to earlier paragraphs titled, “Externally Leveling the Synthesizer .”

Setup Power Meter

2.Zero and calibrate the power meter/sensor.

3.Connect the power sensor to the point where flatness corrected power is desired.

Setup Synthesizer Parameters

On the synthesizer, press (PRESET).

( P O W E R L E V E L ) @ 0). This sets the test port power to +5

dBm (PO max - Ppath loss).

Create A Frequency List

On the synthesizer, press FREQUENCY (E).

Select List Menu Enter List Freq @ (GHz). This enters 5 GHz as the first frequency in the list array. Entering a frequency automatically sets the offset to 0 dB and the dwell to 10 ms.

Enter 18, 13, 11, and 20 GHz to complete this example array.
