FM Discriminator Measurement Examples
The test set's signal input is subject to the limits and characteristics contained in
C A UTI ON
Table
To prevent damage to the test set's hardware components, do not apply the input
signal to the test set's signal input connector until the input attenuator (Option 001)
has been set by the phase noise software, which occurs at the connection diagram.
