Do you have everything? FieldFox –To check for installed options, press System then then System Configuration then Options Show Options Phase stable jumper cable or adapters – Used to connect the FieldFox to devices with various connector types and gender. Attenuators –... -
Page 3: Battery Usage
Battery Usage A fully charged battery should last about four hours. Battery charge status is viewable: In the upper-right corner of the screen. On the battery. To view the LCD gauge on the Inspired Energy battery, open the FieldFox battery compartment door. -
Page 4: Measure Return Loss (Cat)
Measure Return Loss (CAT Mode) Return loss can be thought of as the absolute value of the reflected power as compared to the incident power. When measuring an OPEN or SHORT, all incident power is reflected and 0 dB return loss is displayed. When measuring a LOAD, very little power is reflected and values of 40 dB to 60 dB are displayed. -
Page 5: Measure 1-Port Cable Loss (Cat)
Measure 1-Port Cable Loss (CAT Mode) Required Equipment: LOAD with correct connector type and gender to terminate the end of the DUT. Optional phase stable jumper cable or adapter to connect the beginning of the DUT to the FieldFox. 1. -
Page 6: Measure Dtf (Cat)
Measure Distance to Fault Required Equipment: LOAD with correct connector type and gender to terminate the end of the DUT. Known length and cable type or Cable Loss (dB/Meter) and velocity factor of the DUT. Optional phase stable jumper cable or adapter to connect the beginning of the DUT to the FieldFox. -
Page 7: Measure S-Parameters (Na)
Measure S-Parameters (NA Mode) S-parameter syntax is described by the following: S (out | in) out = FieldFox receiver port in = FieldFox source port 1. Press Preset then Preset 2. Press Measure 1 then choose from the following: 1-port reflection measurement. ... - Page 8 Measure S-Parameters (NA Mode) continued The following NA Mode settings can be made before or after calibrating without affecting measurement accuracy. Press Scale/Amptd to change scale. Adjusts the Y-axis to comfortably fit Autoscale the Min and Max amplitude of the active trace. Autoscales all of the traces on ...

Page 9: Multi-Trace Configurations (Na)
Multi-Trace Configurations (NA Mode) You can display multiple traces on the FieldFox screen. The above image shows a 3-trace configuration. Tr1 is the ACTIVE trace as indicated by the highlighted annotation in the upper left corner. The Frequency Range, IF BW, Resolution, Averaging, and Output power is common to all traces. -
Page 10: Calibration (Cat, Na, Vvm)
Calibration Calibration is performed in CAT, NA, and VVM Modes. A calibration is performed automatically when the FieldFox is powered ON and when Preset. This Preset Cal (also known as CalReady) sets the reference plane at the RF OUT connector. For highest accuracy, perform a QuickCal or O,S,L when any of the following occur: ... -
Page 11: Spectrum Analyzer Mode (Sa)
Spectrum Analyzer (SA) Mode SA measurements require NO calibration. Check for a Compressed Measurement 1. Using a marker at the signal peak, make note of the signal power level. 2. Increase the RF Attenuation level by 5 dB. If the signal level does NOT change, then NO compression exists. -
Page 12: Channel Measurements (Sa)
SA Mode – Channel Measurements Optionally apply a Radio Standard which changes frequency settings, Res BW, and other relevant settings to that of the selected standard. Then change the frequency range by selecting channel numbers. 1. Press Freq/Dist then then More Radio Standard. -
Page 13: Record Playback (Sa)
Record Playback (Opt 236) Allows you to record SA traces and play them back at a later time. You are allowed to change most SA settings during a recording. Setting changes are recorded along with the traces. To record a new session: Press Trace 6 then Record Playback Setup Then... -
Page 14: Power Meter Mode
