10 MHz Out Frequency Reference Adjustment
Test Description
The adjustment applies to NFAs with both the standard 10 MHz frequency reference
and 10 MHz precision frequency reference (Option 1D5).
The adjustment is performed by calculating the actual frequency error in Hertz from
Counter Reading 1 given in the 10 MHz Reference Accuracy Test (see page 14).
The negative or positive error is used to define what the new DAC setting should be.
After the DAC settings are adjusted and saved, the 10 MHz Reference Accuracy
Test is re-run to verify the unit meets it's published specification.
