A.2.4 Connecting the frequency converters
Each frequency converter must be connected to power supply, analyzer and DUT.
Please refer to the following sections for details.
●
Power supply: Chapter 3.5, "Connecting the converter to the DC supply" ,
on page 11
●
Analyzer ports: Chapter A.1, "Connecting the RF cables" , on page 38
●
DUT (usually connected after calibration): "Mounting a DUT" on page 14
A.2.5 Calibration
The output power can be manually set using the adjusting knob (see Chapter 4.2,
"Output power-adjusting knob" , on page 15). A normal power flatness calibration
via "Channel" > "Calibration" > "Start Power Cal" > "Source Power Cal" can be
performed, but requires a small convergence factor (0.3 down to 0.1 for high fre-
quency converters). With the help of a receiver power calibration, however, pre-
cise monitoring of the output power of a converter port is possible by measuring
