RPT Results. The following is a description of the results of running RPT.
If units are dBRef (CAL,T S) compute maximum error relative to the reference.
Example:
if absolute (maxError + minErro r) > absolute (minError --RefE rror)
error = maxError --R efError
else
error = minError -- RefError
If units are dBm (PV,TS)compute the difference between the median of the
measured values and 0.0.
Example: error =maxError +minError
2.0
If units are dB P--P (PV,TS) computethe P --P error.
Example: error = maxError -- minError
TroubleshootingFlatness Pr oblems.Included with the software is a utility that
allows you to run the flatness overa restricted frequency or attenuator range as a
means of troubleshooting a problem. This utility canalso be used to download
flatness data from a previous flatnesscalibration run into the 2715.
To enterthis troubleshooting (TS) sequence, after the Cal Lab Name, and Data
Prompts, select TS sequence.
After selecting the flatnesstest to run, you will be prompted to either Run
Flatness, or Download Existing Data. Choose the formerif you wish to run the
flatness test, and the latterif you wish to download data from a previous Flatness
CAL run.
If you choose Download Existing Data, the software will download the data from
the previous run for this serialnumber into the 2715. The data it uses is in the
file \tekcats\flatness\2715\<sn>.unc (where<sn> is the serial number of the
2715).
If you choose Run Flatness, you are askedfor a start frequency, a stop frequency,
a frequency step size,a start attenuator, and stop attenuator. Note that the test
will always run every attenuatorbetween start attenuator and stop attenuator
(2 dB increments). Also note that the numbersentered above must fit within the
normal range of values. Thenormal ranges are: 15 MHz to 995 MHz and 0 dB to
40 dB. If you select values outside theseranges, the test will return and not run.
