2.3.9.3 Using the Fixed Marker Function
This section describes a method of how to measure harmonic distortion using the fixed marker function
which enhances measurement sensitivity and accuracy.
Measurement conditions: The target of the measurement below is a signal that has an output frequency
of 100 MHz and a level of -10 dBm.
Use appropriate parameter values when making the measurements in the
example shown below.
Setup
1.
Connect the unit under test as shown in Figure 2-124.
Figure 2-124 Setup for Measuring the Harmonic Distortion
Power on
2.
Turn the analyzer and the signal generator power on.
Setting the signal generator
This prepares the signal generator for output.
3.
Set the frequency to 100 MHz; the level to -10 dBm; and output to ON.
Initialization
This resets the current settings to the factory defaults or user-defined presets.
4.
Press SHIFT and CONFIG(PRESET).
This sets the analyzer to its presets values.
Setting the measurement conditions
This changes the analyzer settings so that the input signal is displayed more clearly.
5.
Press FREQ, 1, 0, 0 and MHz.
A center frequency of 100 MHz is set.
