    Requirements for Operational Check The Agilent M9302A PXI Local Oscillator operational check measures the LO OUT signal and uses that as a ref- erence to compare the signal paths to the 10 MHz REF OUT and the two 100 MHz REF OUT connectors. The fol- lowing process demonstrates that all associated connectors, cables and circuitry are operational.
  • Page 19 "Return a Module for Service" on page 9. 3. Check the voltage and PLL indicators. They are GREEN if the power supplies are good and the M9302A LO and Reference loops are locked. 4. Set the LO Frequency to 3 GHz. The LO is always enabled.
  • Page 20 1. Verify that all relevant hardware is turned on. 2. Verify that the M9302A paths are correctly set from the SFP and that the signal generator is set to the proper power/frequency and that all cables are properly connected. All SMA connectors are torqued to 8 Lb-In (0.904 Nm).
