Amplitude Characteristics
D YNAMIC RANGE
Immunity T esting
Radiated Immunity When tested at 3 V/m according to IEC 801-3/1984 the displayed average
noise level will be within specications over the full immunity test
frequency range of 27 to 500 MHz except that at immunity test frequencies
of 278.6 MHz 6 selected IF bandwidth and 321.4 MHz 6 selected IF
bandwidth the displayed average noise level may be up to +62 dBV . When
the analyzer tuned frequency is identical to the immunity test signal
frequency there may be signals of up to +37 dBV displayed on the screen.
Electrostatic Discharge When an air discharge of up to 8 kV according to IEC 801-2/1991 occurs to
the shells of the BNC connectors on the rear panel of the instrument spikes
may be seen on the CRT display . Discharges to center pins of any of the
connectors may cause damage to the associated circuitry .
Electrical F ast Transient When subjected to Electrical F ast Transient testing per
EN 50082-1/EIC 801-4 noise may appear on the display of the analyzer
during the application of the test voltage .
