B-3 Operation Error Messages
ADC Over range:
Increase Reference Level
Input signal is too large for the Analog to Digital converter to process. Increase the internal or
external attenuation or, if using Auto attenuation, increasing the Reference Level should
resolve the error. See also the Mixer Overdrive error above for information on Out of band RF
power.
Calibrator Reading Error
Calibration reference source is not providing quality signal. Insure that the battery level is
adequate for operation or that temperature is within acceptable limits. Reset to factory
defaults with either Factory Defaults, ESC+ON, or MASTER RESET, System+ON. Caution:
Use of MASTER RESET, System+ON, will erase all user saved setups and measurement
traces and return the unit to a fully Factory Default condition. If the error persists, then
contact your Anritsu Service Center.
