Performance Tests
5. Minimum R Channel Level
6
Write the power meter reading in the "Results Measured" column on the
"Performance Test Record."
7
Calculate the difference between the analyzer test port power (which appears
on the analyzer’s display) and the power meter reading. Write the result in the
"Power Level Linearity" column on the "Performance Test Record."

In Case of
Difficulty
1
Ensure that the power meter and power sensor(s) are operating to
specifications. Be sure you set the power meter calibration factor for the CW
frequency that you are testing.
2
Verify that there is power coming out of the analyzer’s test port 1. Be sure you
did
not
accidently switch off the analyzer’s internal source. If you did so, press

Repeat this performance test.
5. Minimum R Channel Level
Perform this test to determine the minimum R channel input power level at
which phase lock can be accomplished.
