This performance verication test must be performed with the EMC analyzer set in the spectrum analyzer mode.
The tracking generator output is connected to the EMC analyzer INPUT 50 through a power splitter and the tracking is adjusted at 300 MHz for a maximum signal level. The other output of the power splitter is connected to a measuring receiver. The tracking generator is set to do a power sweep from 97 dBV to 106 dBV (010 dBm to 01 dBm).
The markers are used to measure the displayed amplitude at the beginning and end of the sweep. The power sweep is then turned o and the power level of the tracking generator is adjusted until the displayed amplitude is the same as at the start of the sweep. This power level is measured on the measuring receiver and recorded. The tracking generator is then adjusted until the displayed amplitude is the same as at the end of the sweep. This power level is measured and recorded. The dierence between the two measured power levels is calculated and recorded.
The related adjustment for this performance verication test is the \Tracking Generator Power Level for Option 010, HP 8593EM, HP 8594EM, HP 8595EM, and HP 8596EM."
