computer. None of these tests require access to the interior of the instrument.
Test 1. Absolute Wavelength Accuracy
Test 2. Sensitivity
Test 3. Polarization Dependence
Test 4. Optical Input Return Loss
Test 5. Amplitude Accuracy and Linearity
Allow the Keysight 86120B to warm up for 15 minutes before doing any of the per-
formance tests.
Calibration Cycle
This instrument requires periodic verification of performance. The instrument
should have a complete verification of specifications once every two years.
