Making Measurements with the Agilent 8480 Series Power
Sensors and N8480 Series Power Sensors with Option CFT
This section applies to all Agilent 8480 Series power sensors and N8480 Series
power sensors with Option CFT. It does not apply to the Agilent E- Series
power sensors and N8480 Series power sensors (excluding Option CFT) .
For the Agilent 8480 Series power sensors and N8480 Series power sensors
with Option CFT, there are two methods of providing correction data to the
power meter:
a
inputting the individual calibration factor for a frequency prior to
making the measurement, or
b using sensor calibration tables.
This section describes how to make measurements without using sensor
calibration tables, that is inputting the individual calibration factor for a
frequency prior to making the measurement. This method is advantageous if
you are only measuring at one frequency, as entering all the calibration data in
this instance is not required.
To make measurements without sensor calibration tables, perform the
following steps:
1 Zero and calibrate the power meter. Before carrying out the calibration, you
must set the reference calibration factor of the power sensor.
2
Set the calibration factor value for the frequency of the signal you want to
measure.
3
Take a reading.
Procedure
The following procedure details how to make a measurement on channel A.
1 Ensure that no power is applied to the power sensor.
2 Press .
3 Press . During zeroing, which takes approximately 10 seconds, the wait
symbol is displayed.
4 Connect the power sensor to the POWER REF output.
