Preliminary Checks
Preliminary checks include the following:
— “The Operator’s Check” on page 3-12
The operator’s check tests the network analyzer’s basic functionality of the
source, switch, and receivers.
— “The Test Port Cable Checks” on page 3-15
The test port cable checks are not required, but are recommended to verify
the performance of the test port cables before performing the verification
test.
The Operator’s Check
The operator’s check is a software driven test that checks the basic operation
of the assemblies in all of the measurement port signal paths. By performing
the operator’s check, the following are tested:
— attenuation ranges of all installed attenuators
— calibration of the receivers
— frequency response of the receivers
— phase lock and leveling
— basic functional test of noise floor and trace noise
Accessories Used in the Operator’s Check
