System Operational Check
The
following is a raw measurement procedure to confirm that the RF interface cables between
the test set and analyzer are installed and the system is working correctly. Ensure that your
analyzer is operational before connecting the test set.
•
Stack the analyzer on top of the test set.
•
Install the Test Set I/O cable on the rear panel.
•
Install all of the RF Interface cables on the front panel.
•
Install the included female
3.5 mm
s
hort (
85052-60007
)
to Port 1 on the analyzer.
Equipment Setup
1.
Turn on the test set and the analyzer
.
2.
Preset the analyzer and make the following settings:
•
Set to Multi-Port Mode.
•
Frequency range: 10 MHz to 26.5 GHz
.
•
IFBW: 1 kHz, number of points: 201
•
Scale: 10 dB/Div
•
Set the PNA to measure S11
•
Ensure the RF path of the analyzer is in Default mode. Refer to
for Analyzer with Noise Figure

Port and an uncorrected reflection response trace should be displayed that
resembles the following plots indicated in Table

RF signal path problem, refer to the RF cable diagram and check the
interface cables associated with this signal path for proper installation.
