General Specifications
Specifications for the test set are characteristic for the system performance of the
network analyzer and test set. Actual performance of the system is based on the
customer’s network analyzer and options that are used with the test set. A functional
certificate is only offered for the test set.
An N-Port calibration should be performed for optimum measurement accuracy.
A periodic calibration is not required. The Operators Check should be performed after
System Setup, or if performance is in question.
When connected to a analyzer, the test set will degrade the performance at the test
ports. The internal switch paths reduce test port power to the receivers. This affects
the test port power of the analyzer and also reduces dynamic range. The reflection
tracking values measured in the
“Cal Kit Operational Check” on page
can be
subtracted from the analyzers dynamic range to determine the approximate
performance of the system.
Power Requirements
Verify that the required ac power is available before installing the test set to the PNA.
• 100/120/220/240 VAC (50/60Hz)
• The instruments can operate with mains supply voltage fluctuations up to ± 10%
of the nominal voltage.
• Air conditioning equipment (or other motor–operated equipment) should not be
placed on the same
AC
line that powers the test set and PNA.
• U3042AE12 maximum power is 350 W.
This is a Safety Class I product (provided with a protective earthing ground
incorporated in the power cord). The mains plug shall be inserted only into a socket
outlet provided with a protective earth contact. Any interruption of the protective
conductor, inside or outside the instrument, is likely to make the instrument
dangerous. Intentional interruption is prohibited.
