3. 10 MHz Reference
3. 10 MHz Reference
This adjustment applies to:
The internal 10 MHz time base is adjusted for frequency accuracy. This
procedure does not adjust for long-term drift or aging rate. Only
short-term accuracy is adjusted.
A frequency counter is connected to the CAL OUT, which is locked to
the 10 MHz reference. This yields better effective resolution.
The time base is adjusted for a frequency of 300 MHz as read by the
frequency counter.
