3. Switch to the Show all mode and read the value of capacitance or inductance.

5.3.2. Transformers
RigExpert analyzers can also be used for checking RF transformers. Connect a 50 Ohm
resistor to the secondary coil (for 1:1 transformers) and use SWR graph or R,X graph
modes to check the frequency response of the transformer. Similarly, use resistors with
other values for non-1:1 transformers.
5.4. RF signal generator
The output signal of AA-30 and AA-54 has rectangular waveform and level of about
+13 dBm (at the 50 Ohm load). Therefore these analyzers can be used as sources of RF
signal for various purposes.
For frequencies up to 10 MHz, first harmonic of output signal can be used; in the range
of 10 to 30 MHz – third harmonic; in the range of 30 to 54 MHz (AA-54 only) – fifth
harmonic.
Enter the SWR mode or the Show all mode, press
ok
to start, then press the
2
key to
generate an uninterrupted RF signal.
