Operating and Service Instructions
Operator’s check
The operator’s check is supplied to allow the operator to make a quick check on the coaxial
multiport switches prior to use or if a failure is suspected.
Description
The coaxial multiport switch is connected to a network analyzer configured for the S-parameter
measurement. The network analyzer may be set to sweep over the whole or selected frequency
range of the switch to be verified. The S-parameter measurement is the best way to determine if
the switch is working properly.
