OTHER OPTIONS Menu
This menu is accessed via the BRAVO EX2's OPTIONS menu. It allows the setting of some of the less
frequently used settings.
RLC MODEL
This sets the circuit configuration to use when calculating the equivalent inductance or capacitance of the
circuit under test. When the complex impedance of a single-ended device is measured, this can be
expressed as a combination of resistance and reactance (R + jX). The value of X in terms of equivalent
capacitance or inductance will depend on whether that reactance (X) is in parallel or in series with the
resistance (R). For the equivalent L or C to be calculated correctly, the user must specify which circuit
model to use.
SWEEP ENABLE
Press ENTER to re-enable the sweep. When the sweep is running, the LED above the SWEEP/CW
button will flash. This option is available as the EX2 PC Vision software may, during normal operation,
turn the BRAVO EX2's sweep OFF. If the sweep LED is not blinking, use this option to turn the Sweep
back ON before starting calibration or testing.
MEMORY OPERATIONS
The Memory menu is for saving and recalling test results and settings to/from the BRAVO EX2
’s
internal memory. Pressing the MEMORY key brings up this menu:
DATA SAVE
Press ENTER to open a screen to enter the test result file name, then save it in memory.
DATA RECALL
Press ENTER to open a list of saved test results to select and recall.
SAVE SETTINGS
Press ENTER to save the instruments current operating state. You will be prompted to enter a name
for the .SET file.
