Check TIME DELAY by setting thumb­
wheel switch to following positions and
observing output pulse delay on Time
Interval Counter. Time interval change
should correspond with switch settings.

FREQUENCY STABILITY OF 5 MHz OUTPUT
(Sigma y of Tau)
The rms deviation of the 5 MHz output is measured
using the HP Model 5390A Frequency Stability
Analyzer option 010, and the Model 105B option
H66. This equipment enables measurements of
Sigma y of Tau for averaging times as short as
50 ms.
In this procedure measurements will be made with
averaging times between 50 msec and 100 seconds.
Since the 100 second averaging time measurement
takes over 3 hours to complete, this portion of the
test may be deleted.
The information given below is designed to be used
in conjunction with the 5390A FSA option 010
"Sigma y of Tau" users manual. System connection
should be done per this manual. The following infor­
mation provides the necessary operating param­
eters to enable the operator to verify the 5065A
specification over the measurement range.
The test assumes that the reference standard is an
HP Model 5061A with option 004 or another 5065A.
To perform the tests, connect to 5390A FSA System
as shown in Figure 5-5. Input information to FSA
System as follows:
