Making Measurements Using Spectrum Analyzer Mode
Using the Time-Gated Spectrum Analyzer Capability Without the Gate Utility (Option 107 only)
Using the Self-Calibration Routines with Time-Gated Spectrum Analyzer Capability (Option 107)
The spectrum analyzer’s self-calibration routines (initiated by pressing CAL AMPTD or CAL FREQ % AMPTD ) should be performed prior to using the time-gated spectrum analyzer capability functions. Use the following procedure to perform the self-calibration routines and to check the results of the self-calibration routines.
N O T E
Be sure that the GATE TRIGGER INPUT connector (on the spectrum analyzer’s rear panel) is not connected to anything while performing the spectrum analyzer’s self-calibration routines.
1.Remove the cable from the GATE TRIGGER INPUT connector.
2.Connect the CAL OUT connector to the spectrum analyzer input connector with the calibration cable.
3.Press (CAL). Press either CAL FREQ & AMPTD (to perform the frequency
and amplitude self-calibration routines) or CAL AMPTD (to perform the amplitude self-calibration routine).
4.When the self-calibration routines have successfully completed, press
CAL STORE.
