Minimum requirements
Example
Purpose
21.
Planar Crown RF
Input Connector
- 3.5 mm
(RSA5115B,(RSA5126B
only)
Tektronix part number
131-9062-00
22.
Planar Crown RF
Input Connector
– Type N
(RSA5103B,
RSA5106B only)
Tektronix part number
131-4329-00
NOTE.
You may need more adaptors than come with the instrument.
NOTE.
Always use the Planar Crown adaptor that comes with the
RSA5115B/5126B instruments to connect to other equipment. Use a proper
adaptor when connecting cables with a different connector type.
NOTE.
Be sure that any adaptor and cable you use is speci
fi
ed to operate at the
frequency range of the test you are performing.
Preliminary Checks
These steps should be performed before proceeding to the Warranted
Characteristics tests.
Fan Check
Plug in the RSA5100B, power it on, and check that the fans located on the left
side of the instrument are operating.
CAUTION.
Turn the RSA5100B off immediately if the fans are not operating.
Operating the Signal Analyzer without fans will damage the instrument.
Warm-up
Make sure the RSA5100B application is running, and allow the instrument to
warm up for at least 20 minutes.
NOTE.
The fans will slow down and be quieter when the application is started;
this is normal. Fan speed may vary while the application is running, depending
on the internal temperature detected by the instrument.
