Troubleshooting Using Front Panel Keys

ADC Ctrl

  

To view the dither signal, go to Basic mode, and set the span to 10 MHz.

ADC Dither

 - Turns dither on and off.

ADC Dither CF

 - Moves the dither center frequency in the IF. The 

default is 11.25 MHz relative to 7.5 MHz (center of the screen). The 
DAC range is 1 to 255.

ADC Offset (7, 3, 2, 1, 0)

 - Provides an offset adjustment on the 

NONE/direct ADC path or the manual gain path in the following 
amounts:

These adjustments have a DAC range of 0 to 255. ADC Offset 
adjustments are designed for factory use.

ADC Range

  

Auto

 - The instrument automatically selects the proper ADC range 

based on the ranging rules in firmware.

Auto Peak

 - Allows the instrument to range up during a 

measurement but not range down. Allows the ADC range to 
automatically change to limit ADC gain (to prevent overdriving the 
ADC). The ADC range cannot automatically change to allow more 
ADC gain.

Auto Peak Lock

 - Locks in one range setting. During a measurement 

the ADC will not change ranges. ADC overloads could occur more 
easily in this mode, but the fact that the ADC range is unchanged 
improves the accuracy.

Manual

 - Allows front panel control of the Auto range selections: 

None, 0 dB, +6 dB, +12 dB, and +18 dB. The None setting bypasses 
the ADC range circuits. When the ADC range is changed, the noise 
floor level will increase with decreasing ADC gain values.

ADC Offset 7

offset adjustment on the NONE/direct ADC path

ADC Offset 3

offset adjustment on the 0 dB manual gain path

ADC Offset 2

offset adjustment on the 6 dB manual gain path

ADC Offset 1

offset adjustment on the 12 dB manual gain path

ADC Offset 0
(max gain)

offset adjustment on the 18 dB manual gain path
