Operation
Using Correction Tables
The RSA6100A Real-Time Spectrum Analyzer lets you correct the signal displays and measurement results to account
for gains and losses in external equipment. You can specify a single gain value or you can use an external loss table to
adjust the gain/loss value based on frequency.
To specify external gain/loss corrections:
1. Press the Ampl button to display the
Amplitude control panel.
2. Select the External Gain/Loss Correction
tab.
3. To apply a constant correction factor,
select the
External Gain value check
box. Enter a value into the text entry box.
NOTE. You can enter either positive or
negative gain values. Positive values
represent a gain. Negative values represent
a loss.
4. To use a table that corrects for gain/loss
values depending on frequency, click a
check box under
External Loss Tables .
You can enable all three external loss
tables at the same time. Thus, you could
use different external loss tables for an
antenna, a preampli
fi er, and for cabling.
5. To edit the contents of an external loss
table, click the
Edit button for the table
you want to edit.
