Scale Fidelity
Test Limits
The scale fidelity error will be
≤
±
1.0 dB with
≤ −
10 dBm at the mixer.
This test checks the scale fidelity of the instrument by maintaining a constant
reference level and measuring signals of different amplitudes over most of the
display range. This test sets the input attenuator to 10 dB and the Reference
Level to 0 dBm. The external attenuator is set to 0 dB, and the amplitude of the
source is adjusted to set the displayed signal at the reference level.
The instrument’s internal marker is used to measure the reference amplitude.
The Marker Delta function is activated and the RF input is reduced using the
external precision step attenuator. Signal input levels from 0 dBm to
−
50 dBm
are measured.
